It is not under dispute that petitioner was satisfied with the G.P.F. amount paid during the pendency of earlier Writ Petition No.4880 of 2024, Smt. Sunita Singh Vs.State Of U.P. And 4 Others, which was disposed of vide order dated 27.4.2024 and writ petition was consigned to record. Said order is reproduced hereinafter: "Order on writ petition Heard Mr. Sanjeev Kumar Kushwaha, learned Counsel for the petitioner and Mr. Sharad Singh Upadhyay, learned Standing Counsel for the State. The Deputy Director of Education (Secondary) 7th Region, Gorakhpur, Vinod Krishna, is present today in Court in compliance with the order dated 24.04.2024. He has filed an affidavit of compliance along with an application seeking exemption. The application is taken on record. Let the application and the affidavit be numbered by the Office. In paragraph nos. 12 and 13 of the said affidavit it is averred: "12. That it is humbly submitted that before issuing the aforesaid direction by this Hon'ble Court, the office of the deponent had issued sanction order dated 27.3.2023 for payment of GPF amount Rs.3157136/- to the petitioner. The petitioner has filed application dated 27.1.2024 in the office of the deponent. After receiving the application of the petitioner, the deponent wrote letter dated 7.3.2024 to the District Inspector of Schools Gorakhpur annexing the copy of the application of the petitioner directed him to immediately make payment of sanctioned amount of GPF to the petitioner. Copy of the letter dated 07.03.2024 is being filed herewith as Annexure No.2 to this affidavit. 13. That in pursuance of the aforesaid letter, the District Inspector of Schools Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Arvind Kumar Singh, Narendra Pratap Singh Counsel for Respondent(s) : C.S.C. Smt. Sunita Singh .....Petitioner(s) State Of U.P. And 4 Others .....Respondent(s) Gorakhpur made the payment of sanctioned amount of GPF Rs. 3157136/- and same has been transferred in the bank account of the petitioner on 24.4.2024. In this regard the District Inspector of Schools, Gorakhpur has submitted the certificate vide letter dated 24.04.2024. Copy of the letter dated 24.04.2024 is being filed herewith as Annexure no.3 to this affidavit." Learned Counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner has received a sum of Rs. 31,57,136/- from the Treasury in his bank account. Since the petitioner has received his dues on account of G.P.F., no further orders are required to be made in this writ petition. This petition is consigned to record. Order on Civil Misc. Exemption Application No. Nil of 2024 The exemption application is allowed. The personal presence of Vinod Krishna, the Deputy Director of Education (Secondary) 7th Region, Gorakhpur, is exempted." 3. Now the petitioner by way of present writ petition seeks interest on delayed payment of G.P.F. Such prayer ought to have been raised in earlier round of litigation, but as referred above, no such prayer was raised when the earlier writ petition was disposed of and consigned to record. Therefore, even if the petitioner has a case of payment of interest, same cannot be agitated in fresh round of litigation and for that petitioner is at liberty to file a review or modification application, if so advised in the order passed in earlier round of litigation. 4. With the aforesaid observations, this writ petition is disposed of. October 7, 2025 SB WRIA No. 15025 of 2025 2 (Saurabh Shyam Shamshery,J.)
