Case History
The Supreme Court upheld the Government Order deducting pension from the salary of retired District Judges appointed as Presidents of District Consumer Forums. The Court held that such appointments constitute "re-employment of pensioners," bringing them under Punjab Civil Services Rules Section 7.18, which permits pension deduction when fixing salary for re-employed pensioners, despite the Consumer Protection Act fixing such salaries without explicit pension deduction provisions. The appeals were dismissed. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
