Heard Mr. S.K. Das, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. D.Vardwaj, learned Standing Counsel for School & Mass Education Department.

The petitioner having stood in the same footing is also entitled to the benefits at par with Sarat Chandra Parida (supra). Consequentially, the opposite parties are directed to extend the pensionary and other retiral benefits to the petitioner within a period of four months from the date of communication/production of a certified copy of this order.
With the aforesaid observation and direction, the writ petition stands disposed of.
