Sir,

PNB /IBA / OTHERS will find some reason or the other to delay the proceedings. Judge could have made an observation/remark that judiciary cannot find dates for each & every litigant. Supreme Court will have innumerable cases and it is not possible to match each & every hearing for each advocate of either side. Cases will never move forward with such speed breakers. Pensioners are at the receiving end and they have to grin & bear it. A ray of hope is that next date is very near and we can hope for forward movement.

As per adjournment procedure an advocate has to file an application for adjournment for reasons specified by CJI and circulate it among  all other parties so that they can place their objections if any. However CJI has passed an administrative order that no adjournment will be allowed in regular matters. To overcome this obstacle PNB advocate was present in the court and requested scheduling the case for a later date. 

Only consoling factor is the Hon,Judge has ordered a short date and is also directed to retain the same position of the case.

Singhla case date was fixed on 12,03,2026 almost a month back.  Advocates could have planned  their schedule properly.

Accepting two many cases and then selecting high profile cases and neglecting other cases is not fair.

The Singla case was adjourned to 15th April (by some 6 days ONLY) because the ASG personally APPEARED and REQUESTED for a short date, since he was unwell. 

Any request by Asst. Solicitor General or by the SG is usually acceded to. While every advocate is deemed to be an officer of the Court, some deference is shown to such officers representing the Government. 

THIS DELAY should NOT MATTER. 

While caution on over-enthusiasm of the verdict is necessary [calculations NOW of BENEFITS of UPDATION as if the SAME has been approved are meaningless ], PSU pensioners CAN BE SANGUINE about a favourable ending. 

Either a direction to ALLOW UPDATION as per SC interpretation of the regulations [from date 2002 / ??] ;

Or as per what was given to RBI PENSIONERS from 2019 / subsequently;

And hopefully DO NOT send the parties for negotiation since there is NO SINGLE BODY representing ALL PSU Bank pensioners 

Or some solace by invoking Article 142 of the Constitution which empowers the Supreme Court to render JUSTICE as it deems fit....

Supreme Court cases from its inception in 1950 till 2023 use the term “Article 142” or “complete justice.” We found 1579 cases

Let us hope for the best -->> For COMPLETE JUSTICE notwithstanding that the Rule 35(1) and Annexure A are poorly drafted / amended. The SC CANNOT add any clause but can see through the inherent issue and discern the injustice and injury that sections of PSU Bank Pensioners have faced since 3 decades. That is the PRECISE REASON for the SC calling for the pensions PAID for 3 groups of pensioners #86-87, pre 2002, post 2002.

Even on 15th it seems our case will not be taken up because as per SC cause list 3 judges bench will sit on 15th April in court room 2.

Supreme court judges g
beyond what is in laws
and regulations.
The constitutional fundamental rights can't be infringed by lack of knowledge and by narrow understanding of the spirit of the regulation 35 1 and appendix 1.
No law or regulations are framed to inflict injustice and arbitrary action of executive or by the costodians of law.
Article 14, and16 and 21 are strong foundation for justice and jurisprudence and for natural justice and fair play and equity.
The law of Equality and equity under article 14 Shall be the guiding force for implementation of the person on RBI pension formula.
The supreme court bench shall direct the defendants to implement the same for us under article 14 and16 and 21 of the Indian constitution.
Let us celebrate the judicial victory once it is pronounced.
