It is submitted that petitioners are entitled to the said benefit and the same was even sanctioned in the year 2018 and 2019 itself by the competent authority, however the amount has not been released to the petitioners till date, despite several representations. It is submitted that legal notice dated 25.11.2021, Annexure P7, has also been served upon the respondents in this respect, but to no avail.
