Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions challenging the Punjab & Haryana High Court's decision regarding the pension scheme for non-provincialised employees. The Court held that the introduction of a cut-off date of April 1, 1990, for the pension scheme was not arbitrary and did not violate Article 14 of the Constitution, as the scheme was first introduced on that date. The Court found no illegality in the classification of employees and determined that the previous judgments cited by the petitioners were not applicable to the case at hand.
