Misleading/False affidavits

This query is : Resolved
Having retired in 1993, after a wait of 2 yrs, I filed a petition for realisation of my retiral and other dues in 1995, to which the DRM N. Rly., Lucknow, replied in 1998 that ALL BILLS HAD BEEN PASSED AND NOTHING REMAINED DUE. No receipt copy was submitted by the DRM. Tribunal Judgment, delivered in 2001, directed the DRM to make payment of whatever was due.
I appealed against the Judgment as neither the payable amount was quantified nor the interest on the dues was directed to be paid.
The DRM, repeatedly, filed affidavits from 2001 onwards, before Hon'ble High Court, to aver that all the dues including GRATUITY had been paid.
However, the Gratuity was paid in 2008, i.e. after 15 yrs of retirement.
The appeal, before the Hon'ble High Court Lucknow, is pending. I am 75 now. Lot of mental agony and torture to my family and me due to aforesaid denial of my dues in addition to many others, has been perpetuated.
I want to know if there is any simple way out to get my dues, while suitable action against the errant officials of the Railway, is taken?
