The Court directed the appellants to pay the respondent's deceased husband's retiral benefits to his wife (Pratibha Baldua) within eight weeks, calculated according to the pay scale on the date of retirement. The State was permitted to recover these dues from the private institute where the husband was employed if it believed the institute should have paid them.
