JUDGMENT

The petitioners seek disbursement of Ex-gratia Pension on the basis of Ext. P13 order. The petitioners contend that persons similarly situated are in receipt of Ex-gratia Pension relying on Ext. P13 order. Exts. P15 to P19 representations put in by the petitioners are pending consideration.

I direct the second respondent to consider Exts. P15 to P19 representations with notice to the petitioners. The needful shall be done within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

The writ petition is disposed of.
