ORAL JUDGMENT (PER : SMT.VASANTI A NAIK, J.)
By this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a direction against
the respondents to extend the age of his retirement from 60 to 62 years in
view of the Government Resolutions dated 25.02.2011 and 05.03.2011.
WP 2531/11 2 Judgment
2. We are not inclined to grant the relief claimed by the
petitioner. The petitioner had attained the age of superannuation on
31.05.2011. Though this Court had issued Rule in the writ petition, the
prayer for interim relief was rejected. During the pendency of the writ
petition, the proposal of the petitioner for extension of the age of
retirement was rejected. The petitioner has surpassed the age of 62 years
in the year 2013. In the circumstances of the case, specially when the
petitioner's proposal is rejected and the petitioner did not work for the
period after his retirement till he attained the age of 62 years, it would
not be proper to consider granting relief to the petitioner. The petition is
liable to be dismissed in the circumstances of the case.
3. Hence, it is dismissed as such with no order as to costs. Rule
stands discharged.
