The petitioner has retired from the services of the Haryana
Housing Board on 31.5.2008, on attaining the age of superannuation. In the
year 2005, when the petitioner was working as Plumber at Gurgaon, he
suffered severe breathing problem. Under the medical advice and due to the
emergency, he was to be admitted in B.K. Hospital, Faridabad and
subsequently was treated and operated upon in Metro Heart Institute,
Faridabad, where the petitioner incurred the expenses of Rs. 1,02,075/- and
Rs. 23,452.23 on account of his treatment.
It is the case of the petitioner that the respondents have not
reimbursed the entire medical expenses and only an amount of Rs. 17,424/-
has been reimbursed to him. It is further stated that the matter regarding
CWP No. 9749 of 2009 -2-
medical reimbursement of the remaining amount is pending before
respondent No.2. In this regard, the petitioner has submitted representation
dated 19.3.2008 (Annexure P-6) and subsequently, reminder dated
15.3.2009 (Annexure P-7) was issued, but till date, no decision has been
taken.
In view of the above, after hearing counsel for the petitioner,
without issuing notice of motion, as it will un-necessary delay the matter,
this petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.2 to consider
and decide the representation dated 19.3.2008 (Annexure P-6) and the
reminder dated 15.3.2009 (Annexure P-7) in accordance with law,
expeditiously, preferably within a period of three months.
