according to which the employees, who were in service as on 01.01.2004,
but their services were regularized after the said date, are entitled for the
pensionary benefits as per old pension scheme. Learned counsel for the

the same has not been given to the petitioner, which causes prejudice to
him. Learned counsel further submits that the petitioner has already raised
