Orders
The High Court of Orissa dismissed the State's appeal and upheld the Single Judge's order granting employee Sarasi Parida pension benefits under OCS (Pension) Rules 1992 and GPF Rules 1938. The court held that the State's seven-year delay in issuing appointment orders despite a valid select list (ordinarily valid for one year) constitutes administrative negligence, and citizens cannot be penalized for official complacency; the lower court's order must be implemented within three months. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
