What is this about?

A retired school assistant sought a mandamus for release of admitted retiral benefits including gratuity, commuted pension value, leave encashment, GIS and GPF despite bills being finalised. Relying on an earlier Division Bench order, the Court directed respondents to release all amounts within six weeks, failing which interest at 10% per annum would apply.
