Issues involved: Challenge to judgment questioning correctness of interim order allowing employee to continue till age of 60 years, interpretation of retirement age for employees of Jal Nigam, applicability of regulations and rules governing service conditions.
Interpretation of retirement age: The appeal challenged an interim order allowing an employee to continue till age 60, contrary to standard retirement age of 58. The Division Bench dismissed the appeal, stating the retirement age issue was settled by the Supreme Court in a previous case. Applicability of regulations and rules: Provisions of Uttar Pradesh Water Supply and Sewerage Act, 1975 and Regulations of Jal Nigam Engineers Service were considered. Section 37 ensured service conditions of employees remained unchanged unless altered by Nigam. Regulation 31 specified that service conditions would be governed by rules applicable to other government servants, including any amendments. Conclusion: The Court held that the appeal lacked merit and should be dismissed based on the settled retirement age issue and the regulations governing service conditions. The decision in a previous case was reiterated, specifying benefits for employees allowed to continue till age 60.
