| Decision |
The Supreme Court dismissed the petition filed by the Government of N.W.F.P. seeking leave to appeal against the decision of the N.W.F.P. Service Tribunal. The Tribunal had accepted the respondent's appeal and allowed for the counting of his previous service from 10-2-1967 to 30-12-1979 for the purpose of gratuity and pensionary benefits. The Court found no merit in the petitioner's arguments and upheld the Tribunal's decision, which was supported by precedent. Leave to appeal was therefore refused. |
