                            JUDGMENT

The petitioner who was retired as H.S.T.(Social Science) from K.K.M.H.S.S, Vandithavalam, Palakkad on 30.06.2021 has approached this Court being aggrieved by the withholding of a portion of DCRG to the tune of Rs.86,485/-. Ext.P3 is the liability certificate issued in this regard, which was acted upon. As against the same, the petitioner submitted Ext.P8 appeal, which is now pending before the 2nd respondent. The limited prayer sought by the petitioner is for a direction to consider and pass orders on Ext.P8 within a time frame.

After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, I am inclined to dispose of this writ petition. Accordingly, it is ordered that the 2 nd respondent shall take up Ext.P8 and appropriate orders thereon shall be passed after hearing the petitioner. Orders in this regard shall be passed within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
