STATUS OF PENSION REVISION CASE IN DELHI HIGH COURT

The matters were listed today (29-07-2025) before HMJ Navin Chawla and HMJ Shalinder Kaur.

The Union of India started arguing the matter.

The Court asked Mr Ghose about the issue and he explained that in terms of Rule 37 Sub Rule 8A of the CCS Pension Rules, the absorbee pensioners were promised parity in the matter of pension with central government pensioners. He further told the Court about the recent Kerala HC judgment where the Court has reaffirmed this position.

The Counsel for Union of India essentially referred to a chart submitted by them as part of the written submissions to demonstrate how BSNL absorbee pensioners are getting more pension than Central Government pensioners. He also stated that the Union will be filing an SLP against the judgment of the Kerala High Court.

The Court posted the matter on 19th August at 3:30 PM for further arguments.
