¶2Facts of the case, in brief, are that mother of the petitioners while working on the post of Headmistress in Kanya Primary Pathshala, Nagar Area-Alval, District Azamgarh died on

27.03.2009. Petitioners being legal heir of late Kishori Verma have submitted repeated representations for release of death cum retiral dues of her mother but till date the said dues have not been released by the Respondent No. 2.

¶3Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners has argued that mother of the petitioners died way back in the year 2009 and since then petitioners are running from pillar to post and dues admissible to the petitioners have not been released without there being any justifiable reason.

¶5In view of the aforesaid submissions advanced by the learned counsels appearing for the parties, this writ petition is finally disposed of with liberty to petitioners to file a fresh comprehensive representation within a period of 15 days from today, and if such representation is filed, direction is issued to Respondent No. 2 to consider and decide the said representation by passing speaking and reasoned order within a period of two months thereafter.
