SINGLA petition in Supreme Court

[Anand Rao]

SINGLA PETITION is listed as the 2nd case to be heard on 6th May 2026 at 3 pm. By the same Bench of 2 Hon'ble Judges of the Supreme Court constituting a Special Bench

It appears that the 1st case (teachers from various states) is nearing completion. At the hearing on the previous date of hearing, most of the advocates have addressed the issue. A few observations or clarifications may have remained in that teachers case. 

It is most likely that Singla's case WILL be heard on 6th May. The Special Bench may also hear it beyond 4 pm or fix a new date with Singla as the FIRST ITEM. It can be reasonably expected that the hearing would be completed before the SC takes its vacation from June 1.

Let us await the outcome with HOPE.

Best wishes to all pensioners

Dear Shri Anand Raoji,

This is actually a positive and significant sign. My understanding is, in Supreme Court practice, when a matter is given a specific time slot—such as 3:00 p.m.—it will definitely be taken up on that day at that time, regardless of how many other matters are listed. 

The case is high on the Court's radar, has been given a guaranteed afternoon slot, and will definitely be called on 6th May — but for procedural purposes only, not for final arguments on merits. What happens at that hearing — what directions the Court gives, whether it fixes a fresh final hearing date, whether it presses IBA on the cost analysis — will determine the next stage of the case.

The dedicated time slot is reassuring. It means the matter will not be lost in the crowd tomorrow. 🙏

With Regards,

Sanjay J.
