    The Calcutta High Court allowed the writ petition and directed the State to disburse interest at 8% per annum (instead of the claimed 18%) on delayed gratuity and arrear pension to petitioner Asim Kumar Chakrabortty, a retired Head Teacher, from the date following his retirement (31 January 2025) until actual payment (9 June 2025), finding considerable delay in disbursement constituted a breach of the State's duty.
