Summarize the following court judgment. ition (Civil) No. 1055 and 1088 of 1988. (Under Article 32 of the Constitution of India. ) R.P. Kapur for the petitioners. V.C. Mahajan	 Mrs. Kitty K. Manglam and Ms. A. Subha shini for the Respondents. The Judgment of the Court was delivered by OZA	 J. After hearing the learned counsel for parties it clearly emerges that the two petitioners and one Smt. Rekha Mehta who had filed a petition earlier were all the employ ees of one institution known as Nari Kiketan. This institu tion was fully funded by Delhi Administration and was con trolled by Board managing the affairs. It is also not in dispute that all the three persons mentioned above	 the two petitioners and Smt. Rekha Mehta	 are identically situated in respect of their conditions of service. On 1.12.79 the Board was superseded and the institution was taken over by the Delhi Administration and the staff of this institution Nari Niketan was absorbed in the Delhi Administration vide Order No. 4 2(3) 79 DSW ESTT dated 27.2.80. By this order about 20 officials were absorbed in time scale and pay as were being drawn by them prior to 1.12.79. These facts are not disputed. It is also not in dispute that Smt. Rekha Mehta when after retirement was not given pensionary benefits she filed a petition in this Court No. (C) 539 of 1987. This Court passed the order in the case of Smt. Rekha Mehta as: "Rule issued and made absolute. Arguments heard. The respondents arc directed to calcu late the pension and other retiral benefits of the petitioner taking into account her an tecedent of service before absorption and pay the same as early as possible and in any event not later than three months from today. The respondent will pay costs quantified at Rs. 2	000 to the petitioner. " Thereafter these two petitioners have again filed writ petitions alleging that they have retired and therefore they are entitled to the same pensionary benefits which were given to Smt. Rekha Mehta as they belong to the services of Nan Niketan institution	 subsequently 602 absorbed in the services of Delhi Administration. It is also not in dispute that these petitioners repeatedly approached the respondent Delhi Administration and made representations for getting the pensionary benefits as were granted to Smt. Rekha Mehta after the orders were passed by this Hon 'ble Court. Unfortunately in spite of all this nothing was done consequently these two writ petitions were filed before this Court. Learned counsel appearing for the Delhi Administra tion attempted to contend that the decision in the case of Smt. Rekha Mehta will not be applicable but realising the difficulty he only read through the affidavit filed in return wherein a long story as to how the papers tossed from department to department and ultimately no decision was taken. There is also reference to the Govt. of India	 Minis try of Personnel & Training	 Public Grievances & Pensions and it is stated that in the opinion of these departments the judgment of this Court in Smt. Rekha Mehta was a judg ment in the particular case only and these petitioners are not entitled to pensionary benefits. It is unfortunate that such a simple affair where the services in an institution under the control of the Delhi Administration and fully funded by the Delhi Administration when taken over and the staff absorbed in the Delhi Administration it could be said that they will not be entitled to ordinary facilities like the pensionary benefits when available to other staff of the Delhi Administration and apart from it when in one case of an employee of the institution whose services were absorbed in the Delhi Administration has been decided by this Court still the counter affidavit indicates the working of the departmental officials who chose to opine that it is not binding on the Go	 vt. That was a case only of a particular employee in spite of the fact that Union of India is alleged as a party. It has chosen not to keep a counsel present at the time of hearing of these petitions. All these circum stances go to indicate as to how the matters are handled by our Administration resulting in unnecessary litigation and heavy expenditure on the public exchequer. Apart from	 the expenditure of litigation the costs that have to be paid in such litigation. The facts as are not in dispute the case of one of the employees having been decided by this Court it was expected that without resorting to any of the methods the other employees identically placed would have been given the same benefit	 which would have avoided not only unnecessary litigation but also of the waste of time and the movement of files and papers which only waste public time. Learned counsel only read out the counter and stated that it was thought that the case of Smt. Rekha Mehta will not be ap plicable to the case of the present petitioners although learned counsel had no argument in law to sup 603 port such a contention. The petitions are therefore allowed and it is directed that the petitioners shall be paid their pensionary benefits within 3 months from today. It is fur ther directed that the petitioners shall be entitled to costs of Rs.2500 in each case. It is also directed that the matter will be considered at the appropriate level to see that such things do not happen in future so that unnecessary litigation is avoided and costs to the public exchequer is saved. P.S.S Petitions allowed.

An institution being fully funded by the respondent Administration was taken over and the affected stuff ab sorbed in its services in the time scale of pay. The peti tioners who comprised the said staff were not given pension ary benefits upon retirement. They	 therefore	 filed these writ petitions. This court in a petition by one of the affected employ ees (Smt. Rekha Mehta vs Delhi Administration	 W.P. (C) No. 539 of 1987 decided on April 4	 1988) had directed payment of pensionary benefits. However	 the case of the respondent was that the said decision having been rendered in a partic ular case	 it would not be applicable to the petitioners in the instant case. Allowing the writ petitions	 HELD: The services in an institution under the control of and fully funded by the respondent Administration having been taken over by it and the staff absorbed in the time scale of pay	 it could not be said that they would not be entitled to ordinary facilities like the pensionary benefits available to other staff. [602D] The case of one of the employees having been decided by this court	 it was expected that without resorting to any of the methods	 the other employees identically placed would have been given the same benefit. [602G] [The petitioners to be paid pensionary benefits within three months. The matter to be considered at the appropriate level to see that such things do not happen in future	 so that unnecessary litigation is avoided and cost to the public exchequer is saved.]
