                                 JUDGMENT

Petitioner retired as Chargeman from the respondent Corporation

on 31/05/2007. Petitioner seeks payment of pensionary benefits

overlooking seniority. Petitioner relies on Exts.P2 and P2(a) to contend

that the marriage of his daughter is fixed to be solemnised on

26/12/2007.

I heard learned counsel for the respondent Corporation also.

It is pointed out by the standing counsel for the Corporation that in the

normal course of the seniority, petitioner will get the benefits probably

by 31/12/2007. In the circumstances of the case and that the

petitioner retired as Chargeman, the writ petition is disposed of

directing the respondent to pay to the petitioner the amount due as

DCRG and Commuted Value of Pension on or before 10/12/2007. The

direction to release the amount as aforesaid need be complied with

only after retaining such amount as is necessary to clear any liability

due from the petitioner on the strength of any agreement executed by

him or due from him to the Corporation.
