¶1Allowed, subject to just exceptions. W.P.rCI No.5714/2018 & CM Anpl. No.22177/201S

¶2Via this writ petition, the petitioner/EDMC has challenged summons dated 27.4.2018 issued by the National Human Rights Commission. By virtue of the impugned summons, the Commissioner of the petitioner Coi-poration has been directed to make himself available on 29.5.2018 at I 1L00A.M.

¶3It appears that this situation came about as terminal benefits of respondent No.l had not been paid.

3.1 It is the stand of the petitioner Corporation that the terminal benefits, which included pension and amounts to be paid towards DGRC, though W.P.(C) No.5714/2018 Pg.lof2 \i sanctioned, could not be remitted to respondent No.l on account of paucity of funds. In my view, no interference is called for with the impugned summons dated 27.4.2018. The Commissioner should be abie to explain the situation obtaining in the matter to the NHRC.

¶5Writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed. W.P.fC) No.5714/2018 may 25,2018/pmc RAJIV SHAKDHER, J Pg-2 of 2
