    Summary The High Court of Karnataka dismissed the State's writ petition challenging the Karnataka State Administrative Tribunal's (KSAT) order directing the State to grant all promotional benefits to respondent Rangaswamy A.R., a retired educator promoted to Professor on May 31, 2023. The court held that since the respondent was promoted and assumed charge of the higher post on his date of superannuation, he is entitled to corresponding pay and pension benefits calculated in the promoted cadre, not his previous position, finding the State's denial arbitrary and contrary to Rule 23 of Karnataka Civil Service Rules.
