JUDGMENT

Petitioner was retired as Professor from the College of Horticulture, Vellanikkara, Thrissur under the Kerala Agricultural University on 12.12.2013. Petitioner approached this Court on account of non-disbursal of pensionary benefits. 2.

Learned Standing Counsel for the Kerala Agricultural University submits that it is on account of financial constraints, they are unable to pay the pensionary benefits.

3.

Considering the facts and circumstances, University is allowed time till 30.06.2015 to pay the pensionary benefits. It is open for the respondent/University to pay the pensionary benefits either in lumpsum or in installment. However, it is made clear that entire payment has to be effected on or before 30.06.2015. If University fails to pay the amount within the above period, the amount will carry interest @6% per annum from 01.07.2015 onwards.

The Writ Petition is disposed of.
