OUR COURT CASE W.P. 1875/2013 IN DELHI HIGH COURT

Coram :

Hon'ble the Chief Justice

Hon'ble Mr. Justice Anup Jai Ram Bhambani

Order/27.05.2019

These petitions were filed on behalf of the retired employees working with the State Bank of India is

pending since 2013. Challange in these petitions is made to certain provision of the State Bank of

India Employees Pension Fund. Primarily the issue involved is with regard to grant of pensionary

benefits to the retired employees.

Considering the fact that the matter is pending since 2013 and it was also heard on various dates

by various benches, we had directed for listing of the matters for final hearing in the category of 'after

notice miscellaneous matters'. The matters were posted on 24.02.2019 and since then the hearing

has commanced. It was partly heard and now after conclusio of arguments on behalf of the pensioners,

the respondents are addressing us on various issues. However, due to the ensuing summer vacations,

it is not possible to conclude hearing before the vacation and thereafer, for certain reasons this Bench

may not be available to contnue hearing.

That being so, we have no option but to release the matter from part heard. However, looking into

the fact that petitions are pending since 2013 and the persons who would be beneficiaries of any order

to be passed by this Court are senior citizens and pensioners, we direct listing of the matters on 11th

July, 2019 before the roaster Bench.

We are hopeful that the matter would be heard expeditiously at an earlier date and disposed of

particularly in view of certain orders passed the Hon'ble Supreme Court directing for expeditious

hearing and disposal of the matter within a particular time frame.

Chief Justice
