Hon'ble Sudhir Agarwal,J.
1. Called in revise. None appeared to press this writ petition. Learned Standing Counsel is present for respondents. In the circumstances, I myself have perused the record.
2. By means of present writ petition, petitioner has sought following reliefs:
“a. To issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondent to fix the revised pension of the petitioner as per revised pay scale of Rs. 4000-6000 as on 1.1.1996.
b. To issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus commanding the respondent to pay the petitioner penal interest of 18% per annum on payment of the arrears of pension so revised.”
3. I myself have gone through the pleadings, grounds as also reliefs sought and find that petitioner is not able to make out a case so as to justify interference of this Court by granting reliefs, as prayed for.
4. Moreover, it appears that either the cause of action no more survives or the petitioner has lost interest in this matter or it has otherwise become infructuous and, probably for this reason, none is interested to have decided this matter on merits and that is why, counsel for petitioner is absent.
5. Dismissed. Interim order, if any, stands vacated.
