Dated this the 13th day of July, 2007
JUDGMENT
Heard.
2. The case put forward by the petitioner for an opportunity
to exercise re-option with effect from 1.7.1995 apparently stands
answered, in so far as the questions of law are concerned, by
Ext.P11 judgment, as confirmed by the Division Bench as per
Ext.P12. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of directing
that the impugned orders will not be relied on against the
petitioner and she will be entitled to exercise re-option with
effect from 1.7.1995 and in terms of Exts.P11 and P12
judgments. The recovery order, as it stands now, is hereby
quashed and the respondents are directed to finalise the case of
the petitioner, including the grant of retiral benefits, within an
outer limit of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of
this judgment.
