Pensions are a fundamental right that retired workers cannot be denied because they are a major source of income for them. It appears from the numerous cases that have come before this court that the SC order was more often ignored than faithfully interpreted and carried out. These cases include people requesting that their pension be given to them.

supreme court judgement on retirement benefits

The Supreme Court has ruled against the denial of pension and other retirement benefits to a group of workers in Uttar Pradesh who were initially hired as daily wage laborers and went on to provide their services for 30 to 40 years.
As most of the appellants have already worked for the government for such a long time period, it would be unjust as well as very unreasonable to not allow them to get the terminal benefits or post-retirement benefits that may be readily available to most of the regular employees in the government.
The government of Uttar Pradesh was ordered and advised by the court to totally ensure that all the benefits that are readily available to the appellants or available to their legal heirs are immediately paid out within two months.
