Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's decision which set aside the Central Administrative Tribunal's order directing the Delhi Transport Corporation to grant pension to the appellant. The Court found that the appellant's service did not meet the required 10 years for pension eligibility as per the Corporation's policy, specifically considering the leave without pay and the training period. The Court emphasized that the appellant's claim for pension was not substantiated by the requisite qualifying service as defined under the applicable pension scheme.
