MANGAL DATT TIWARI Vs. STATE OF JHARKHAND

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The present petition has been preferred for getting it declared that instead of 60 years, the age of superannuation of the petitioners is 62 years, on the basis of Medical Council of India's recommendation and on the ground of parity that the age of superannuation of teachers is fixed as 62 years.

(2.) I have heard learned counsel for the respondents, who has submitted that petitioner no. 1, namely, Dr. Mangal Datt Tiwari retired on 31st March, 2010 and petitioner no. 2, namely, Dr. Prem Mukul Topno retired on 30th April, 2010. Learned counsel for the respondents further submitted that there is no rule, regulation or Government policy prevailing as on today which gives the vested right in the petitioners for getting age of superannuation as 62 years. As on today, in fact, the age of superannuation is 60 years, as per the prevailing Government policy and, hence, the present petition deserves to be dismissed.

(3.) Having heard learned counsels for both sides and looking to the facts and circumstances of the case, I see no reason to entertain this writ petition mainly for the following facts and reasons:-
