Re  Proceedings in Delhi HC today, the 4th August.

Our amended WP no 184/2007 came up  today as scheduled.  We were represented by our Sr. Counsel Shri Rakesh Khanna besides our Advocates on record. All the members of the Legal Committee were present in the Court. 

We may inform our members that just on the eve of the hearing LIC had filed on 2/8/16 their counter to our petition taking, as expected, many untenable stands like stating that DS Nakara's case was relevant only for Govt pensioners . Even during the discussions we had with our Sr. Counsel last evening he was of the firm view that we should file a rejoinder. The affidavit of compliance on payment of 40% IR also came up for discussion.

During initial part of the proceedings, the Additional SG appearing for UOI stated that similar provisions like 3A exist in other pension schemes also and matter of constitutional validity has to be addressed. He sought time for filing his counter.  

The Bench also expressed that the constitutional validity  has to be decided, and gave 10 days' time for the counter to be filed  by the UOI.  

The court then ordered us to file a rejoinder within 10 days and also directed all petitioners to file reply affidavits on the 40% payment issue. The Case  now stands adjourned to 29/8/2016.

There could be any number of colorable versions  of the proceedings today but we would confine to only the  facts of the proceedings.


With Greetings,

"Achyutha,Anantha,Govinda namocharana beshajath nasyanti sakala rohath ,Satyam satyam vadhamyaham"

Appeal by Sridharan G.N 6:02 PM (13 minutes ago) FAITH AND PRAYER  deserve to be considered as one of the weapons to fight the virus menace. It is  not without purpose that even the Westerners believe in the old dictum - 'many things are wrought by prayers'. Gandhiji said that the tenets of Hindu religion and faith has universal application .Our ancient texts do prescribe prayers as a panacea for all human ailments. For instance in Mahabharata - vide Dwadasa nama pancharam an appendix to Vishnu Sahasranamam - a sloka in the words of Bishma pitamah runs as follows: "Achyutha,Anantha,Govinda namocharana beshajath nasyanti sakala rohath ,Satyam satyam vadhamyaham" That is, he swears that uttering the various names of the Lord will cure a person  of  ALL his diseases.In another sloka it is said that even water from holy Ganga can be good enough a medicine (oushadam) if only we believe the Lord (sriman Narayana) as the doctor.(vaidy
