JUDGMENT Admittedly the petitioner left service without completing the minimum requisite period to earn minimum pension. He, thereafter, served the Armed Forces. On the face of the statutory rules governing grant of minimum pension, I find no ground to issue any direction as sought for. The writ petition fails. Dismissed. THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN, JUDGE.
