Mohanty (2), learned counsel appearing for the Petitioner and Mr. A. Tripathy, learned Addl. Govt. Advocate appearing for the Opp. Parties. 3. Even though the present writ petition has been filed seeking disposal of Annexure-8, which relates to regularization of the services of the Petitioner, but in course of hearing learned counsel appearing for the Petitioner contended that Petitioner since is not getting his remuneration w.e.f.31.08.2023, Opp. Party Nos. 3 & 4 be directed to release the remuneration as due and admissible. 4. Learned Addl. Govt. Advocate on the other hand contended that since Petitioner at no point of time has raised a claim to get the benefit of remuneration w.e.f.31.08.2023, the writ petition is not maintainable. 5. Having heard learned counsel appearing for the Parties and considering the submission made, this Court while disposing the writ Page 2 of 2. petition, permits the Petitioner to move an appropriate application before Opp. Party No. 3 for release of his remuneration w.e.f.31.08.2023, if any. 5.1.
