By this order age of retirement in the department has been enhanced from 58 to 60 years with prospective effect.The enhancement of retirement age of the petitioners was subject to the decision taken by the State Government, as per the orders dated 24/30.1.2012 passed by this Hon'ble Court in the writ petition filed by the petitioner. Now the State Government has taken a decision on the basis of the letter dated 29.4.2012 and its G.O. dated 20.12.2011. On these two dates the petitioners were in service hence the petitioners are entitled to the benefit of order dated 24.7.2012 passed by the State Government but the State Government has denied the benefit of order dated 24.7.2012 to the petitioners by saying that the orders will be prospective in nature.
