Hearing in SC on 13.10.2017
As we had already informed through short messages, our case came up for hearing as scheduled yesterday. LIC Counsel was the first to speak and he wanted time to file counter.
Our Senior Counsel then pointed out that the S.C. had already granted an interim relief but LIC have not been paying the increase consistently. He strongly pleaded for grant of further IR. The Bench specifically examined the paper book of our SLP 21206/2017 and indicated that the grant of IR will be considered. We were satisfied, and so were our counsel on record and senior counsel, that the bench was favorably inclined on IR. It was Hon’ble judges who posted the matter in Jan 2018.
We have to mention that the significant part of day’s discussion was from our Senior Counsel.
Four of our representatives including myself were present. Four members of AIRIEF were also present.
In the light of some messages being circulated to the contrary, we wish to confirm that our counsels never sought any adjournment at all, nor any counsel of other petitioners wanted hearing in Nov/Dec 2017.
The record proceedings of yesterday show s our case number (including prayer for IR) at the top. The record also shows against our SLP and two others, “service is complete”.
Seasons’ Greetings for Happy Diwali
