Verma, Sr.Advocate with Mr. Prasant Sinha, Advocate ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA and HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAMESH KUMAR DATTA ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA) 10-03-2016 The only surviving issue is fixation of pension to the workers, who are deemed to be members of the Employees Provident Fund Organisation, consequent on an order passed by this Court earlier.
2. Learned counsel for the Employees Provident Fund Organisation states that they have asked the workers' Union to fill up the forms to be countersigned in the Electricity Board to facilitate computation and release of pension.
3. On the other hand, learned counsel for the Electricity Board states that they have no record of any employee and, therefore, they are unable to verify the particulars in respect of period for which they have worked or under which of the
Patna High Court MJC No.2594 of 2014 (12) dt.10-03-2016 contractors have engaged their services.
4. In view of non-availability of the records with the Electricity Board, we deem it appropriate to call upon the Union or the workers to furnish the records of the employment of each of the worker to the EPF organization and give such other particulars as is required by them to enable them to compute the pension. If no record is forthcoming, the Employees Provident Fund Organization shall pay the minimum amount of pension to the workers.
5. The workers shall submit the requisite forms duly filled up to the Employees Provident Fund Organization and thereafter, the Employees Provident Fund Organization shall release the pension within next two months.
6. With the said direction, the present petitions stand disposed of.
