Updation

[Manickam Ravindran]

It is indeed rather precipitate and somewhat churlish that a few among our retired fraternity have begun painting an unduly rosy panorama of the Singla case, even venturing to proclaim certain victory. Optimism, when tempered with prudence, is admirable; yet unbridled exuberance, especially at this nascent stage, borders on imprudence.

While every individual is unquestionably entitled to his or her perspective regarding updation, there exists a fine but significant distinction between measured hope and embellished conjecture. Elaborate discussions on arrears, intricate calculations, and speculative outcomes, before the Hon’ble Court has pronounced its considered verdict, appear somewhat premature and may inadvertently foster misplaced expectations.

In matters of such gravity and consequence, patience is not merely a virtue but a necessity. Let us, therefore, exercise dignified restraint, preserve collective equanimity, and await the judicial pronouncement with composure and sobriety. Until the scales of justice have finally settled, it would be wise to temper our enthusiasm with circumspection.

[Ramani Konnayar]

I broadly agree with your views, the essence of which is, too much expectations could lead to utter, unbearable disappointment, if the judgement turns out to be against us.

This is the general rule. However, in our case, we are well accustomed to withstand disappointment and wait endlessly with fond hopes of realising our aspirations one day or other in future. Moreover, most of us are having a lot of spare time at our disposal. Hence, lot of discussions have been taking place. The main reason for our high expectations of a favourable judgement is the comparative statistics called for by the judges which indicates that they are against huge disparities in Pension among those who retired in the same cadre with same length of service but at different points of time, separated by many years. Many amongst us reasonably feel that it is not for nothing that these statistics have been ordered to be placed before the court. All said done, we are, as usual, well prepared mentally to bear disappointment if it occurs.
