The Supreme Court has given a very welcome judgement. In the Special Leave Petition filed by the Bank of Baroda against the decision of the Allahabad High Court upholding the decision of the Industrial Tribunal which ruled that the denial of superannuation benefits to the employee was neither legal nor justified.
The family of late S.K.Kool, who was removed from service and denied superannuation benefits approached the Industrial Tribunal for justice. The Industrial Tribunal ordered a favourable decision to the petitioners. The Bank went to the High Court and lost its appeal. then i went to the SC and lost there also. The Bank was also filed an amount of Rs. 50,000 towards cost.
The decision of the SC will benefit many retrenched/removed/dismissed workers.
Employees can get benefit even after removal from service – SC

REALLY A WELCOME JUDGEMENT. CAN IT BE GIVEN IN FULL SIR.
I am trying to get the full judgement. Then it can be published.
this sc judgment is equally applies to bsnl employees as per rule 37a of ccs pension rule read with sub rule 8 and 24.
There is no provision to forfeiture of pensionery benefits under this rule and also
there is no provision under conduct rules or model standing orders of bsnl .Therefore dismissed or removed ex-dot bsnl employees are eligible for both dot as well as bsnl combined service pensionery benefits without any doubt.
