> CHENNAI: Right to pension is like right to property, which is enforceable as a fundamental right under the Constitution, the Madras high court has held.
> Justice Vinod K Sharma, directing the state government to release the full pension and other retrial benefits to a retired civil supplies employee, said: "It is now a well settled law that the right to pension is right to property which is enforceable as a fundamental right under the Constitution. The state government cannot interfere with this right in the absence of any legal authority."
> The matter relates to a petition filed by V Chandrasekar, who joined the revenue department as a junior assistant in 1954. He was later promoted as an assistant and then as deputy tahsildar. He was then sent to the Tamil Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation (TNCSC) on deputation. In 1982, when he was on deputation, he was held responsible for the loss of 20,000 bags of paddy supplied to a huller. The huller, however, moved the court and got the case against him quashed.
