Case Summary: WPSS/1527/2026 The court disposed of 12 consolidated writ petitions by Pharmacists seeking Old Pension Scheme benefits after their 2006 appointments following a 2005 selection process. The petitioners argued they were entitled to the Old Pension Scheme since vacancies were originally advertised in 2000 and candidates received age relaxation in the delayed 2005 selection. Rather than deciding the merits, the court permitted petitioners to file fresh representations within 10 days, with the State required to pass a reasoned decision within four months thereafter. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
