    Case Summary: The court allowed the writ petition filed by legal heirs of deceased Gram Panchayat employee Kenaram Kahar, who died in October 2018. Despite completing all pension formalities timely, the pension order was issued only in July 2023 and gratuity disbursed in September 2023—nearly 5 years late. The court directed the Director of Pension and Treasury Officer to pay 8% per annum interest on the gratuity amount from October 14, 2018 until actual payment, within one month.
