A. Great Legal Battle of the central pensioners has ended with the
Supreme Court,rejecting the. Special Leave. Petiton of the central
Government on. 29th July,2013.
The Principal Bench of CAT,New Delhi had given
a favourable verdict
on the petitiion filed by some pre 2006 pensioners seeking rectification of
Anomaly caused due to unjustified fixation of pension based on sixth
Pay. Commission recommendations and. Decision of the central
Government,thereof.
According to the judgement,the pre 2006 pensioers are entitled to get
a modified parity in their pension with effect from 01-01-2006.

in the Delhi High Court.While the proceedings were going on in the
High Court,the government issued an order on 29th January,2013,
restricting the financial effect only from 23-09-012.However the
