R .K.MERATHIA,J - (1.) Heard the parties.
(2.) PETITIONER prays for payment of balance amount gratuity amounting to Rs. 3050/ - and to commute 40% of his pension. The grievance of the petitioner is that after order was passed on 26.2.2004 in W.P. (S) No. 1111 of 2004 he made representation on 30.4.2004 to the Electricity Executive Engineer the Secretary and the Chairman but he has not received any reply to the same, though the said representation was to be disposed of as per the order dated 26.2.2004 within two months from the date of receipt of the said order. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner was verbally told by the Electrical Executive Engineer that he is not the competent authority and, therefore, the matter has been referred to the competent authority. Thereafter petitioner sent copies of the representation to the Secretary and Chairman also.
