JUDGMENT : AMOL RATTAN SINGH, J. 1. A short reply has been filed in Court today on behalf of the respondents, stating therein that leave encashment was sanctioned to the petitioner on 28.11.2014 and was released to him on the date that he retired, i.e. 30.11.2014, for an amount of Rs.4,51,260/-. It has also been stated that 100% provisional pension was released to the petitioner with effect from 02.02.2015. 2. It has been further stated that 24 “observations”, were made on the 'No Dues Certificate' submitted by the petitioner to the Accounts Officer, in respect of which a notice was issued to the petitioner on 14.03.2016. The petitioner complied with what was asked from him, on 26.08.2016. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that, however, full pension to the petitioner was released to him only on 20.09.2016. 4. Keeping in view the fact that the objections were first raised 2½ months after the petitioner retired and notice in that respect was issued to the petitioner only 1 year and 3 ½ months after he had retired, the respondents are directed to pay the petitioner statutory interest on all delayed payments made, it not having been stated anywhere in the reply that he had not submitted his documents well in time prior to his retirement. 5. The aforesaid calculation of interest be made within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order, thereafter giving him notice of one month to object to the calculation. Interest be paid to the petitioner within one months thereafter, after considering his objections, if any, by passing a speaking order thereupon. Disposed of.
