Case Overview:
Petitioner: Sri H. Nagabhushana Rao (102 years old)
Respondents: The Union of India and Canara Bank
Issue: The petitioner, a freedom fighter, was denied pension for 13 months (Nov 2017 - Dec 2018) due to the non-submission of a life certificate, which he struggled to submit due to old age. Despite legal orders, the pension arrears remained unpaid, forcing him to seek redress repeatedly.
Hearings Summary:
First Petition: Court directed pension restoration but did not resolve the arrears issue.
Second Petition: Court acknowledged the bank’s responsibility to collect the life certificate for elderly pensioners but didn’t result in arrears being paid.
Third Petition: The petitioner argued that the bank’s failure to collect his life certificate led to unfair denial of pension.
Judgment:
The court ordered the Union and the bank to jointly pay the arrears of ₹3,71,280 with 6% annual interest and an additional ₹1,00,000 as litigation costs. It stressed that banks should assist elderly pensioners in cases like this and avoid denying benefits due to procedural delays.
