In compliance with the aforesaid direction, the petitioner has filed an affidavit dated 20.07.2026, stating that the said GPF amount was withdrawn by her on 14.01.2026 and 01.02.2026. However, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is still claiming interest on the delayed release of the said GPF amount.
