AMAN CHAUDHARY, J. (Oral)

¶15

Prayer made in the present petition is for directing the respondents to release the payment of arrears of revised pay/pension w.e.f. 01.01.2016 to 30.06.2021 alongwith all consequential benefits.

¶16

Learned counsel would contend that regarding the claim raised in the present petition, a legal notice dated 30.10.2024, Annexure P-6, has been served upon the respondents, which has yet not evoked any response. He, on instructions, prays that a direction may be given to the respondents to decide the same in a time bound manner, to which learned State counsel has no objection.

¶17

In view of the above and without commenting upon the merits of the case, this petition is hereby disposed of with a direction to the respondents to decide the legal notice dated 30.10.2024, Annexure P-6, within a period of 4 months, which this Court has no reason to believe the authorities would not address in a just, fair and reasonable manner. Upon doing so, after notice and hearing offered to them and if found entitled, grant the benefit forthwith. Needless to say, if the orders are adverse to their interest, the same shall contain reasons and the petitioners shall be free to seek legal redress thereupon.
