The State\u2019s notification also provided that the pension would be admissible as per Pension Rules for State as amended from time-to-time and the upper ceiling of pension was raised from Rs. 25200 to 38500. The State amended Rule 3(2) of the Pension Rules, 2009 in the year 2010 and the maximum limit of pension was fixed at Rs. 38500.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rule 3(3) of the Pension Rules, 2009 which has been struck down by the High Court by the impugned judgment and order, is as under:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">\u201c3(3) The revised rate of pension within the above limits of minimum and maximum pension shall be computed notionally from 1st January 2006 or, as the case may be, from the date of superannuation\/retirement whichever is later. But financial benefit according to this computation will be admissible from 1st January 2009 or from the date of superannuation\/retirement whichever is later\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The same was challenged on the ground that there is no reasonable excuse to deny the actual benefit of pension for the period from 01.01.2006 to 31.12.2008 inasmuch as 80% of the financial requirement for implementation was to be borne by the Central Government whereas the State Government was to bear merely 20% of the entire requirement for making payment of the arrears of pension for the said\u00a0\u00a0 period.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">State, on the other hand, submitted that because of heavy financial burden and there being financial constraints, the State is not in a position to bear the heavy burden of additional revised pension and therefore, the State formulated a policy decision to the effect that the revised pension shall be paid\u00a0\u00a0 from 9 01.01.2006 to 31.12.2008 notionally and actual revision of pension shall be disbursed from\u00a0\u00a0 01.01.2009 only.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The High Court refused to accept State\u2019s plea of financial crunch struck down Rule 3(3) of the Pension Rules, 2009 being arbitrary and violative of Article 14 of the Constitution of India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Supreme Court, however, was not impressed with the approach of the High Court as it had, without giving any cogent reasons, observed that the foundation i.e., the financial crunch has not satisfied the Court at all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Supreme Court noted that when specific statistics were provided by the State before the High Court justifying its policy decision and the financial crunch\/financial constraint was pleaded, there was no reason for the High Court to doubt the same.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court went on to hold that it was satisfied that a conscious policy decision was taken by the State Government to grant the benefit of revision of pension notionally from 01.01.2006 or from the date of superannuation till 31.12.2008 and to pay\/grant the benefit of revision of pension actually from 01.01.2009, which was based on their financial crunch\/financial constraint. To come to this conclusion, the Court relied on the decision in <strong>State\u00a0of\u00a0Punjab\u00a0v.\u00a0Amar\u00a0Nath\u00a0Goyal, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/85nnWCa2\">(2005)\u00a06\u00a0SCC\u00a0754<\/a><\/strong> that financial constraint can be a valid ground for fixation of cut-off date for grant of benefit of increased quantum of death-cum-retirement gratuity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Holding that the cut-off date has been fixed as 01.01.2009 on a very valid ground i.e., financial constraint, it was held that the High Court manifestly erred in striking down the Rule 3(3) of the Pension Rules, 2009 being arbitrary and violative of Article 14 of the Constitution and the decision was liable to be set aside.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, noticing that the original writ petitioner has already been paid the arrears from the date of her retirement pursuant to the interim order passed by the Supreme Court, it has been directed that the same shall not be recovered from her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[State of Tripura v.
