4. Be that as it may, the petitioner claims that there is an error in calculation. If so, the petitioner is at liberty to submit a detailed representation to the respondents, recording the alleged error as claimed by him. If any such representation is filed by the petitioner, the respondents shall once again verify the correctness of the settlement already made in favour of the writ petitioner by revisiting the same and take a decision and communicate the same to the writ petitioner, as expeditiously as possible.
5. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed of. No costs. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed. (S.M.S.,J.)
