Heard Sri S.P.Tiwari, learned counsel for the petitioners, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for the State, Mr. Uttam Kumar Verma, learned counsel for the opposite parties no. 2 to 5 and perused the record. Instant writ petition has been filed with the following main relief :-
"(a) Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the opposite parties to pay retiral dues like Gratuity, Encashment and Pension along with arrears of pension with 10% interest and to continue to pay pension regularly to the petitioners as and when it falls due." The contention of learned counsel for the petitioners is that the petitioners have been retired from service in the different years and he has not been paid his retiral dues as yet and he is running from pillar to the post. He further submitted that the petitioners have raised his claims, many at times, but, that is unheard. He next submitted that the authorities may be directed to provide the retiral dues, for which the petitioners are entitled for, within the stipulated period of time, as may be fixed by this Hon'ble Court. Learned counsel appearing for the respondent-university submits that it is an admitted fact that the petitioners were working in the respondent-university and he has been retired. He submitted that the payment of dues, payable to the petitioners, will be considered and paid within shortest period of time.
