Shubham Srivastava and Anr. v. Punjab National Bank Through Its General Manager and Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
Petitioners, dependents of a deceased bank employee, challenged the prospective introduction of a compassionate appointment scheme initiated in 2014 after the employee's death in 2004. The Court held that since no scheme existed at the time of death, the claim could not be entertained.
What did the court decide?
None. The petition was disposed of as no cause for indulgence was made out given the absence of a scheme at the time of the employee's death.
