[2] Ld. Addl.GA, Mr. Dipankar Sarma appears and accepts notice for respondent nos.1 to 4. Ld. Counsel Mr. A. Chakraborty appears and accepts notice for respondent nos.5 and 6.

[3] It is submitted from the side of petitioner that the petitioner went on superannuation on 31.03.2022 as Jr. Engineer, (Mech), Grade-I from the Department of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, Government of Tripura. During his service he was granted the benefit of CAS-I and CAS-II respectively w.e.f. 25.02.1991 and 25.02.1999. He was also given benefit of ACP-III on completion of 25 years of service w.e.f. 25.02.2018. But after his retirement, from the office of Accountant General, a letter was issued to the Superintendent of Agriculture, Bishalgarh Agri Subdivision, Sepahijala Dist. Tripura on 12.10.2022 stating that there was some anomaly in the pay fixation of the petitioner and therefore his last pay would be Rs.1,10,300/- instead of Rs.1,17,000/-. It was also requested to the Superintendent of Agriculture, Bishalgarh to examine the matter and to re-fix the pay of the petitioner accordingly.

[4] The petitioner, thereafter, submitted a representation on 15.11.2022 to the respondent no.3 i.e. Director, Department of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, Government of Tripura requesting not to recover any amount from him and to release the remaining Gratuity amount and commuted value of pension, but, there was no favourable response to the said representation from the side of respondent no.3.

[4] Being aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred WP(C) No.1097 of 2022 which was dismissed by a coordinate Bench of this Court on 07.03.2024.
