U will remember I raised
my concerns that Sec. 48
will come in the way...
Dear Sir.
- Yes, you are right. Sec 48 undoubtedly gives the powers to the Central Govt. But it does not give powers to them to not amend existing LIC Pension Rules which violate Articles 14 & 16 of the Indian Constitution. Any rules & powers are circumscribed by the constitutional provisions. I am sure the various counsel will argue accordingly before the SC Bench.
Kind regard.
