The petitioner had stated that he is entitled to get the Tamil Mozhipor Thiagis' pension. Therefore, he had applied to the Government of Tamil Nadu for sanction of the said pension, on 10.7.1992. He had also submitted the relevant documents. The petitioner had given a fresh representation addressed to the second respondent, on 7.10.1996.

By an order, dated 7.9.2000, this Court had disposed of the writ petition by directing the respondents to pass appropriate orders on the petitioner's application, dated 7.10.1996.

The petitioner had also submitted another representation to the first respondent, on 10.6.2002. After the necessary enquiries were conducted by the District Collector of Tiruvallur District, recommendation had been made for the grant of pension. The first respondent had passed an order, according to G.O.Ms.No.231, Tamil Development and Culture Department, dated 17.11.2003, sanctioning a consolidated amount of Rs.10,000/- under the provisions of the Tamil Nadu Payment of Pensions to Tamil Scholars and the Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1983. Therefore, the petitioner had filed a review application, dated 4.2.2004, to the second respondent to review the matter and to pass appropriate orders for sanctioning monthly pension to the petitioner, as provided under the Act.
