CORAM : R.M.BORDE & P.R.BORA, JJ.

DATE : 15th July, 2015 PER COURT:

Petitioners, for claiming their entitlement to receive freedom fighter's pension, have placed reliance on the order passed by the Apex Court in Civil Appeal Nos.10624-10636 of 2013 decided on 25.11.2013. The Apex Court, while delivering the order, has observed that the appeals are decided purely on facts and circumstances of the case and those shall not be treated as precedent in any other case. In the matters raising identical grievance being Writ Petition No.2384 of 2011 and other companion matters, the Division Bench of this Court declined to cause interference and dismissed the petitions by order dated 17.11.2014. For the reasons recorded while disposing of writ petitions by the Division Bench, in above referred matters, this petition also does not deserve favourable consideration.

Writ Petition is dismissed. In the facts and circumstances of the case, there shall be no order as to costs. P.R.BORA R.M.BORDE JUDGE JUDGE adb/wp701415
