Decision The petition for leave to appeal was dismissed as the finding of the Federal Service Tribunal regarding the incompetency of the appeal was deemed unexceptionable. The court found that the allotment of quarters or houses was not included in the terms and conditions of service for civil servants. The petitioners were granted two months to vacate the quarter and hand over possession to the relevant authorities.
Summary This case revolves around a civil servant's appeal regarding the allotment of a house that had been occupied by his father. The Federal Service Tribunal dismissed the appeal, ruling it incompetent as the allotment of housing was not a part of civil service terms. The Supreme Court upheld this decision, emphasizing that civil servants do not have a right to retain quarters post-retirement unless specified. The ruling highlights the legal framework surrounding civil service housing entitlements, making it a significant reference for similar future disputes. Keywords like 'civil service housing', 'Federal Service Tribunal', and 'Supreme Court of Pakistan' are trending in legal discussions, making this case a pivotal point for understanding civil servant rights and housing policies.
