(Delivered by Hon'ble Rajes Kumar, J.)

1. Heard learned counsel for the
parties.

2. The petitioners retired as Readers,
Lecturer/Associate
Professor/Associate
Professor/Reader. They claimed that their
age of retirement should be 65 years while
the claim of the State Government was that
the age of retirement is 62 years. Matter went
upto the Apex Court. In Civil Appeal
Nos.5527-5543 of 2013, Jagdish Prasad
Sharma etc. Vs. State of Bihar & Ors. and in
other connected appeals arising from the
State of U.P., the Apex Court vide order
dated 17.07.2013 has held that the age of
retirement is 62 years and the claim of the
petitioners that the age of retirement should
be 65 years has been rejected. Before the
Apex Court, it was also contended that some
of the teachers, Professors, Readers etc.
worked on the basis of the interim order after
62 years and, therefore, they are also entitled
for the benefit of service. In respect of such
claim, the Apex Court observed that
"However, persons, who have continued to
1408 INDIAN LAW REPORTS ALLAHABAD SERIES
work on the basis of the interim orders
passed by this Court or any other Court, shall
not be denied the benefit of service during
the said period."

3. Learned counsel for the petitioners
submitted that since the petitioners worked
after the age of 62 years on the basis of the
interim order thus are entitled for the salary
for the period during which they have
worked in view of the aforesaid directions of
the Apex Court.

4.

Learned
Standing
Counsel
submitted that in view of the direction of the
Apex Court, the petitioners are entitled for
the salary for the period during which they
worked in view of the interim order of the
Apex Court but their post retiral benefits will
be calculated on the basis of the salary drawn
by the petitioners on the date when they have
been superannuated after attaining the age of
62 years.

5. We have considered the rival
submissions. We find substance in the
argument of learned counsel for the
petitioners as well learned Standing Counsel.

6. In view of the above, the writ petition
is disposed of with the direction that the
petitioners are entitled for the salary for the
period, during which they have worked in
view of the interim order granted by any
Court or by the Apex Court even after
attaining the age of 62 years but their post
retiral benefits shall be calculated on the basis
of salary drawn when the petitioners attained
the age of superannuation, i.e. 62 years.
Respondents nos.2, 3 and 6 are directed to
make the payment to the petitioners after
necessary verification, within a period of two
months as directed above from the date of
presentation of the certified copy of this order
in accordance to law.

7. Further it is observed that we find
that number of writ petitions are being
filed for seeking the aforesaid direction.

8. In view of the above, we may
observe that above direction may also apply
in case of similarly situated persons and such
persons instead of approaching this Court,
may place our order before the authority
concerned and the authority concerned is
directed to comply with aforesaid direction
after verification.
