Judgment text excerpt
The case concerns whether an employee can withdraw an application for voluntary retirement after the management has accepted it. The appellant sought voluntary retirement under a specific scheme and received acceptance from the respondent-management. The court examines the legal effect of the appellant's subsequent attempts to withdraw the request prior to the actual date of relief from service.
