...Respondents _____________________________________________________________________ Coram Hon'ble Mr. Justice Jiya Lal Bhardwaj, Judge Whether approved for reporting? 1 For the petitioner: Ms. Gitika Dhiman, Advocate vice Mr. Mohit Thakur, Advocate. For the respondents: Mr. Hemant Kumar Verma, Deputy Advocate General, for respondents No.1 to 6-State. Mr. Rangil Singh, Advocate, for respondent No.7. Jiya Lal Bhardwaj, Judge (Oral)
The respondents in compliance with the order dated 18.06.2026, have filed an affidavit. Along with the affidavit,
order dated 30.04.2026 (Annexure R-2/1), passed by the Hon’ble Division Bench in LPA No.128 of 2026, titled, State of H.P. & Ors. vs. Bimla Devi & Anr. is also annexed.
2. A perusal of the order dated 30.04.2026 reveals that Hon’ble Division Bench of this Court has stayed the judgment 1 Whether reporters of Local Papers may be allowed to see the judgment?
2 dated 27.06.2025, passed in CWP No.6688 of 2021, titled, Bimla Devi vs. State of H.P. & Ors. In the said judgment, the Court had counted the period of service rendered by the writ petitioner as whole time contingent paid, for the purpose of granting benefit of pension.
3. In the present case too, the judgment sought to be executed has directed the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner for grant of pension after taking the whole time contingent period w.e.f 20.06.2011 to 01.01.2013 as qualifying service, in addition to regular service of 9 years and 30 days. Since the Hon’ble Division Bench has already stayed the
judgment, on a similar issue, the present execution petition cannot proceed further and, as such, is dismissed at this stage. However, liberty is reserved to the petitioner to file execution petition after the decision in the aforementioned case. Pending application(s), if any, shall also stand disposed of. 31 st August, 2026
