Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether employees who resigned from service before the implementation of pension schemes could claim benefits under those schemes when they were made applicable retrospectively. The court held that the employees are entitled to the pension benefits as the schemes were made applicable retrospectively, thus ensuring that their rights were protected despite their resignation prior to the schemes' enforcement.
