After arguing at considerable length, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant(s) submits that very relevant point that the other similarly situated employees who have been appointed along with the appellant(s), working on the similar post under the scheme, have been granted the benefit of pension but the same has been denied to the appellant(s) merely on the ground that one other writ petition filed by an employee was dismissed, wherein such argument was not raised, hence, the present appeal may kindly be disposed of having been not pressed with a liberty to file a review. Further, liberty may be granted to the appellant(s) that in case the appellant(s) are not successful in review, they can file fresh appeal.
