Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the eviction of an ex-employee from the Board's quarter, emphasizing that once an employee retires, they have no right to occupy the quarter beyond the statutory period as per the Bihar Pension Rules, 1950. The Court noted that the appellant had been given multiple opportunities to vacate the premises but failed to comply with the orders. The Court affirmed the dismissal of the appellant's appeal, reinforcing the principle that retired employees must vacate official accommodations promptly after retirement.
