In Brief
A former Lab In-charge of a college sought payment of arrears of salary and pension following his absorption by a university, as directed in an earlier Supreme Court order in Krishna Nand Yadav. The petitioner's pension had been stopped after absorption. The Court held that disputes over actual working days, salary arrears, and pension calculations require fact-finding inquiry unsuitable for a miscellaneous application. It directed the university to adjudicate the petitioner's claims for salary (verifying actual work) and pension (counting service from absorption date) within prescribed timelines, with recourse to the High Court available if dissatisfied."
