Arvind Kumar Srivastava”, (2015) 1 SCC 347.’ (c) It is a settled position of law that in service jurisprudence, once benefits are conferred on an employee, there need not to be a separate order of the Court conferring similar benefits on other similarly placed employees as ipso facto such benefits are required to be extended. 3. In the aforesaid background, we deem it appropriate to dispose of the present petition with a direction to the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner in the light of the Division Bench judgement of this Court in the matter of “Ashish Sharma Vs. Union of India and Ors.” with connected matters, decided on 21st May, 2026. 4. Let the decision taken thereon be communicated to the petitioner within 12 weeks from today. 5. The petitions stand disposed of accordingly. 6. The pending application(s) also stands disposed of accordingly.
