Uday Prasad Roy v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

Court No. 17 WPA 21738 of 2022 03.02.2023 Uday Prasad Roy Vs.

State of West Bengal & Ors.

(AD 18) (S. Banerjee) Mr. Sakti Pada Jana ... for the petitioner Mr. Rezaul Hossain ... for the State Mr. Saikat Banerjee Mr. Ratul Biswas Mr. Kaushik Chowdhury ... for the WBBPE Let the affidavit of service filed in court today be kept with the record.

The matter relates to non-payment of arrear pension. The petitioner has relied upon a judgement delivered by this court in WPA 7691 of 2022 (Narayan Chandra Roy Vs. the State of W. B. & Ors.) on 29.11.2022 that the arrear pension should be given following the date of retirement which I accept. Therefore, I direct the concerned District Inspect of Schools (P. E.) and the Director of Pension, Provident Fund and Group Insurance to take immediate steps so that the petitioner can get the arrear pension. However, the petitioner has submitted that he is not willing to pray any interest thereon and no interest is required to be paid to the petitioner.

The arrear pension is to be given to the petitioner by three months from date of communication of this order.

The writ application is disposed of.
