THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU W.P. No. 10398 of 2005 O R D E R: The only grievance of the petitioners is that they being freedom fighters who fought against the then Nizam Government for merger of Hyderabad State into Union of India, are entitled for sanction of pension under the Swathanthra Sainik Sanman Pension Scheme, 1980. It appears, 2nd respondent made a recommendation to 1st respondent for sanction of pension under the said Scheme on 9.5.2002. In spite of that, nothing has happened as of today. Under those circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of directing 1st respondent to consider sanctioning of pension to the petitioners under the Swathanthra Sainik Sanman Pension Scheme, 1980 pursuant to the recommendation made by 2nd respondent and pass appropriate orders, as per law, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No order as to costs. JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU. Date: 22-12-2010. MVB.
