The petitioner has preferred instant writ petition for a direction upon respondents to pay the balance amount of death-cum- retirement gratuity, computing the service rendered by the petitioner's husband from the date of initial joining, i.e. on 25.09.1995 to the petitioner along with admissible interest. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that for ventilation of her grievances, the petitioner has approached the authority concerned by moving representations. However, despite several representations moved by the petitioner, no heed has yet been paid. Learned counsel for the State-respondents submits that in case petitioner moves a fresh application/representation before the competent authority, the same shall be considered and decided in accordance with law. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case but without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case set up on behalf of the petitioner, the present writ petition is disposed of by providing that the petitioner may make fresh application/representation, ventilating all his grievances, supported by such documents, as may be advised, before the respondent no.3 - District Basic Education Officer, Kannauj, within two weeks from today along with a certified copy of this order. On such representation being made, respondent no.3 shall make all endeavours to consider and decide the same, strictly in accordance with law, by means of a reasoned and speaking order, after giving proper opportunity of hearing to the parties concerned, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of production of certified copy of this order, if there is no legal impediment.
