Headnote | Civil Services University Grants Commission Scheme, 1986-Clause 26- Age of superannuation of teachers-Implementation of-State Govemment deciding to implement the Scheme, but not accepting higher superannuation age of 60 years- Whether teachers entitled to superannuate on attaining 60 year -Different conditions of service and superannuation age for teachers of universities and private affiliated colleges- Whether discriminatory-Retirement age of 55 years for affiliated college teachers too low-Experience gained by teachers after several years of teaching-Not to be lost by early retirement age-Consideration and determination of correct age by State Government-Need for. Clause 26 of the University Grants Commission Scheme of 1986 framed by the Government, pursuant to the recommendations of the Malhotra Committee, provided that the age of superannuation for teachers should be 60 years. The Scheme also contemplated certain improvement in the revision of pay scales and provision of assistance in that behalf. While the Government of Kerala decided to adopt a major part of the Scheme, including the revision of scales of pay it did not accept the recommendation as to the age of superannuation. This was challenged by the affected teachers before the High Court, contending that once the State Government had accepted the Scheme, which also provided for higher age of 60 years for superannuation, all the clauses of the Scheme became applicable and they were entitled to superannuate at the age of 60 years. However, this plea was rejected by the High Court. Hence, the appeal, by special leave, before this Court. Some Writ Petitions were also filed before this Court, by the affected teachers. |
