is that the marriage of the petitioner’s daughter is

proposed to be held on 27/08/2010 which is evidenced by

Ext.P2 marriage invitation letter.

2. Heard the learned Standing Counsel for the

Corporation. The learned Standing Counsel did not dispute

the fact that the marriage of the petitioner’s daughter is

to be held on 27/08/2010. But, it is submitted that

sufficient time will have to be granted to the Corporation

to disburse the amount.

3. In W.A.No.289/2001, this Court had framed certain

guidelines with regard to the disbursement of the

retirement benefits. It was also stipulated therein that

the retirement benefits will be disbursed as per the

seniority unless otherwise ordered by this Court. In that

view of the matter, since the reason shown by the

petitioner is genuine, he is entitled to be granted a

W.P.(C). No.14334/2010
-:2:-

direction as sought for in the writ petition. Therefore,

there will be a direction to the respondent to disburse the

pensionery benefits including D.C.R.G and Commuted Value of

Pension to the petitioner within a period of three months

from today. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No

costs.
