Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that employees of a Municipality are entitled to pension and pensionary benefits upon retirement, as established in the case of Chief Officer vs. Mohmad Irshad Husenbhai Baloch. The Court emphasized that the denial of such benefits by the Municipality was unjustified, reinforcing the legal principle that employees have a right to claim pension based on their service. The appeals filed by the Una Nagar Palika were dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling.
