And 2 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Sudhakar Shukla Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C.,Harshit Pandey Hon'ble Ajay Bhanot,J. The petitioner's mother was working as safai karmchari in the Nagar Nigam, Kanpur Nagar. She superannuated in the year 30.07.2015 and died on 01.03.2024. The petitioner claims certain entitlements including the benefit of Assured Career Progression (A.C.P.) payable to his deceased mother. He has made a representation in this regard but to no avail. The only prayer made by Shri Sudhakar Shukla, learned counsel for the petitioner is that the representation of the petitioner may be decided within a stipulated period of time. Shri Syed Shanawar, learned counsel holding brief of Shri Harshit Pandey, learned counsel for the respondent Nos.2 and 3 submits that the matter requires determination of facts by the competent authority in light of applicable provisions of law in the first instance. However, he fairly contends that his service benefit/claim is liable to be decided by the competent authority in a reasonable time frame. In wake of the aforesaid submissions and without going into the merits of the case, the respondent no.2 is directed to decide the representation of the petitioner regarding grant of certain entitlements including the benefit of Assured Career Progression (A.C.P.) in accordance with law within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order along with a fresh copy of the representation. The mother of the petitioner superannuated on 30.07.2015 and the petitioner approached this Court in May, 2025. In view of the admitted delay on the part of the petitioner without any good cause in approaching the Court no interest shall be admissible for the aforesaid period. The writ petition is finally disposed of. Order Date :- 22.5.2025 Dhananjai Digitally signed by :- DHANANJAI High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
