Hyderabad: Two panels of judges in the Telangana High Court allow Nilayam Railway (SCR) to pay remuneration to retired employees. The crux of the dispute is whether SCR employees are entitled to receive pensions under the P&G (Central) Railway Service Rules (Pension Rules).
A panel of Justices Abhinand Kumar Shavili and Justices Laxmi Narayana Alishetty put aside a judge’s judgment and ruled that the calculation was not wrong. Earlier, the employees concerned filed a petition before control under the Payment Remuneration Act. Authorities allow applications and direct railways to make balance payments. The railway failed to successfully submit an order to a single judge.
The situation with the railway is that it has the form of the railway service (pension) rules of 1993. Therefore, under the Act, the Act passed the Act of 1972 under the Act, which was passed in 1972, and the order dated February 26, 2016, by a single judge. The employee’s case is that under the railway rules of 1993, the remuneration paid is less than what the 1972 decree paid.
By contrast, the Railway argues that all its employees are governed by the 1993 rules, while employees’ retirement benefits, including tips, pensions and all other benefits. An amendment to the amendment indicates that anyone who serves as a post under a central or state government is subject to any other bill or any rule.
The panel began to refer to various judgments of the Supreme Court and declared that the employees of the railway were not covered under the definition of “employee” under section 2(e) of 1972, and therefore, after section 2(e) of the amendment, and therefore, under the provisions of the 1972 Act, they were exempted from the provisions of 1972. Railway Services (Pension) Rules, 1993.
