Respondent Review Application No.193 of 2024 is filed under Order 47, Rules 1 and 2 read with Section 114 of the Civil Procedure Code to review the order passed by this Hon'ble Court in W.A.No.1457 of 2013 dated 17.04.2018.

O R D E R

[Judgment was delivered by S.M.SUBRAMANIAM, J.] This Review Application has been filed to review the order passed by this Court in W.A.No.1457 of 2013 dated 17.04.2018.

2. Pension is not a bounty but the wages for the deferred portion of the services rendered by an employee. Thus, pension cannot be denied merely on the ground of delay. Pension is a continuing cause of action.

3. The writ appellate court while confirming the order of the writ court made it clear that the deceased husband of the writ petitioner completed the qualifying service under the Pension Rules. That being so, we are not inclined to entertain the Review Application. The petitioners have not established any error apparent for interference.

4. Thus, the Review Application stands dismissed. No costs. [S.M.S., J.] [C.K., J.] 16.07.2024 skr (2/2) Index:Yes
