DATED : 27.10.2016

O R A L J U D G M E N T (Per Smt.Vasanti A Naik, J.)

By this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a declaration that

the age of retirement of the petitioner is 62 years and the petitioner

should be continued in service till she attains the age of 62 years.

2710WP6516.05-Judgment 2/2

2. It is stated on behalf of the respondent No.2 that the issue

involved in this stands answered against the petitioner in Writ Petition

No.6529 of 2005 (Shri Shripati Bhiva Kamble v. State of Maharashtra

and Ors.) wherein this court has by relying on the judgment of the

Hon'ble Supreme Court, reported in 1992 Supp (3) SCC 191 (T.P.

George and others v. State of Kerala and others) held that the

recommendations of the University Grants Commission in regard to the

age of retirement are not binding on the State Government and the

State Government is entitled to continue the employees till the age of

60 years, despite the recommendations of the University Grants

Commission in respect of the extension of the age of retirement.

3. Since the issue involved in this case stands answered

against the petitioner by the aforesaid judgment, we dismiss the writ

petition with no order as to costs. Rule stands discharged.
