REUBEN JACOB, ADDITIONAL ADVOCATE GENERAL ALONGWITH ADDITIONAL GOVERNMENT ADVOCATE FOR RESPONDENT NOS.1, 2 AND 5; GOPALAKRISHNA SOODI, SRI. NOTICE SERVED ON RESPONDENT NO.3; SRI. GURURAJ JOSHI, ADVOCATE FOR RESPONDENT NO.4) THIS WP IS FILED UNDER ARTICLES 226 AND 227 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA PRAYING TO CALL FOR RECORDS RELATING TO THE IMPUGNED COMMUNICATION BEARING NO.Va.Kai. 42. Resh. Vai. Vi.2010 DATED 14.10.2010 VIDE ANNEXURE- P ISSUED BY THE 1ST RESPONDENT AND AFTER PERUSAL, SET ASIDE THE SAME AND ETC. THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR HEARING, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR JUSTICE R. NATARAJ ORAL ORDER The petitioners have all sought for a declaration that they are employees of the State Government within the meaning of - 37 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 Rule 2A of the Karnataka Civil Services Rules (henceforth referred to as 'KCSR' for short) and therefore, they are entitled to pension under Rule 285 of KCSR. Alternatively, they have sought for a direction to the respondent No.1 to grant them pension on par with the employees under the 'Triple Benefit Scheme' granted to the grant-in-aid institutions under the Karnataka Education Act, 1983.

2. The petitioners contend they were all employees of respondent No.4 which is an autonomous body constituted by the State Government in terms of an order dated 16.07.1980. The respondent No.4 had its budgetary grants in the form of grant-in-aid by the State Government towards salary, wages and other expenses. Therefore, they contend that the respondent No.4 was under the direct control of the respondent No.1 and was part of department of respondent No.2. They further contend that a perusal of the memorandum of association of respondent No.4, established that it was an instrumentality of State under Article 12 of the Constitution of India. They contend that their representation dated 14.11.2000 for grant of pension, was placed before the respondent No.3/governing council of respondent No.4 which - 38 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 took a decision to place it before the respondent No.1.

The respondent No.1 in terms of its letter dated 15.01.2001 sought for certain clarification regarding the proposal submitted by the respondent No.3 for grant of pension to the employees of respondent No.4. The clarification sought for was submitted to the respondent No.1. Later the respondent No.1 informed the respondent No.3 by letter dated 25.02.2002 that grant of pensionary benefits under KCSR may not be proper, as employees of respondent No.4 were admitted to salary grant and in case pensionary benefits were granted under KCSR, similarly placed institutions would make a similar demand which would impact the finance of the respondent No.1. It therefore, directed the respondent No.4 to have a provident fund scheme. On 05.10.2002, the respondent No.3 submitted yet another proposal stating that respondent No.4 was established in the year 1981 with the assistance of the World bank and that the employees of the institution were granted pay scale on par with the Government employees and that the institute was fully controlled by the State Government and was part of the Department of Sericulture.

They claimed that grant of pensionary benefit under KCSR would not burden the - 39 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 Government with any additional expenditure, but on the contrary, the State Government would be saving contribution made to the provident fund. Therefore, it requested the respondent No.1 to reconsider its earlier decision not to grant the benefit of pension under KCSR. The respondent No.1 again in terms of its order dated 01.04.2003 informed the respondent No.4 to work out a fund and formulate a scheme with the help of an insurance company. The respondent No.4 again escalated the demand of its employees for grant of pension by submitting a fresh proposal to the respondent No.1 on 08.04.2004 regarding a pension scheme to be framed and sought approval of the Government. The respondent No.1 in terms of a letter dated 30.08.2004, informed the respondent No.4 that in view of its earlier decision, question of reconsidering the issue did not arise and thus rejected the proposal.

The respondent No.4 once again submitted a proposal seeking absorption of the entire institution to the Department of Sericulture and to grant pensionary benefits on par with the Government servants. This proposal was also rejected by the respondent No.1 stating that the respondent No.4 being an autonomous institution, its employees cannot be - 40 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 treated as Government servants and therefore, the benefit of KCSR cannot be extended. Being aggrieved by the said communication dated 14.10.2010, the petitioners have filed this writ petition.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the respondent No.4 is comprised of the Secretary, Commerce and Industries Department, Finance Secretary of the State Government, Director of Sericulture, Bengaluru, Professor of Zoology, Bengaluru University, Director, Central Sericultural Research and Training Institute, Mysore, and Director, Karnataka State Sericulture Development Institution, Bengaluru. He submits that the respondent No.4 is fully controlled by the State Government. Besides this, he submits that the respondent No.4 is fully funded by the State Government and therefore, for all practical purposes, the respondent No.4 is a department of respondent No.3 and hence, the petitioners are to be treated as the servants of the Government and are to be treated as Government servants for the purpose of KCSR. He contends that Rule 2A of KCSR, provides as follows: - 41 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 "2A. Application Rule

285.- Notwithstanding anything contained in Rule 2, Rule 285 shall, with effect from 16th March, 1970, apply to all persons serving in connection with the affairs of the State of Karnataka including persons allotted or deemed to be allotted to serve in connection with the affairs of the State of Karnataka under Section 115 of the States Reorganization Act, 1956". He then referred to Rule 285 of KCSR, which reads as follows: "285. Retiring pension:- A retiring pension is a pension granted to a Government servant, (a) who is permitted to retire any time after completion of a qualifying service of not less than 15 years subject to the conditions specified in sub-rule (2) hereunder; or (b) who is permitted to retire any time on attaining the age of 50 years, subject to the conditions specified sub-rule (3) hereunder; or (c) who is retired in public interest any time after completion of 20 years of qualifying service or after he has attained the age of 50 years subject to sub-rule (4) thereunder.

" - 42 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 Thus, he contends that if the petitioners are treated as Government servants, they too are entitled to be treated on par with the Government servants in the matters of grant of pension. He further submits that the respondent Nos.3 and 4 have recommended the employees of respondent No.4 to be treated as Government servants and to apply the provisions of KCSR in the matters relating to grant of pension. Therefore, the petitioners are entitled to be treated on par with the Government servants. He further contended that the Cadre and Recruitment Rules of respondent No.4 specifically provided that the provisions of KCSR 1958, Karnataka Civil Service (Conduct) Rules, 1966 and Karnataka State Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1957 and all other service rules applicable to the officers of the Government shall in so far as they are related and applicable to employees of the KSSRDI are adopted for application to the employees of the KSSRDI provided such rules are not incorporated in the Bye-laws of KSSRDI. He therefore, contends that the respondent No.4 has itself adopted the provisions of KCSR, 1958 and therefore, the employees of the respondent No.4 had to be treated as Government servants at least for the purpose of grant of - 43 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No.

45513 of 2011 pension. He contends that in a similar case, the Karnataka Silk Filature Factory, was taken over by the Karnataka State Silk Industries Corporation and question arose whether those employees were also Government servants for the purpose of grant of pension. In that case, the tribunal considered the question whether employees who were erstwhile employees of a Government company which were taken over by the Karnataka State Silk Industries Corporation were entitled to grant of pension and it held that such employees were also serving the State Government for the purpose of Rule 285 of KCSR and held that they too were entitled to be treated as Government Servants for the purpose of grant of pension. The learned counsel contended that the judgment of Karnataka Administrative Tribunal was upheld by this Court and the State Government in terms of its order dated 29.09.2010 granted the pension to all those persons who were parties before the tribunal. He therefore, contends that the petitioners too are similarly situated and hence, they are to be granted the benefit of pension as applicable to the Government servants.

4. Per contra, the learned counsel for the respondent No.2 has filed statement of objections contending that the - 44 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 respondent No.4 is an autonomous institution established by the State Government and that the petitioners are all employees of respondent No.4 and their service conditions are exclusively governed by the Cadre and Recruitment Rules. Therefore, it contended that the service benefits that are made available to the Government servants cannot be extended to the petitioners. It further contended that the respondent No.4 is not an extension of department of respondent No.3, but the respondent No.3 draws benefit from research findings of the respondent No.4 for its extension activities. It also contended that the respondent No.4 is granted aid by the respondent No.1 but that does not necessarily mean that the respondent No.4 is a Government institute and therefore, the employees of respondent no.4 cannot be treated as Government employees. It further contended that the claim of the petitioners that they should be treated on par with the employees of Karnataka State Filature Factory is unfair, as the petitioners were governed under the Employees Provident Fund Scheme of the Government of India and the management of respondent No.4 was paying an equal contribution every month in respect of the petitioners which were credited into their respective accounts - 45 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 and therefore, the petitioners cannot have a double benefit of provident fund and pension. With these contentions, it claimed that the petitioners are not entitled for any reliefs sought for in the writ petition.

5. The learned Additional Advocate General representing the respondent No.1 submitted that the judgment relied upon by the learned counsel for the petitioner in Application Nos.6723 to 6727/2004 c/w Application No.4195 to 4233/2005 rendered by the Karnataka State Administrative Tribunal, Bengaluru is not applicable to the facts and circumstances of the case, in as much as, in that case what was in issue was whether those employees who were erstwhile employees of the State Government and who are later on handed over to an autonomous body could be deprived of the right to claim pension. He submitted that in the present case the facts are entirely different in as much as, all the petitioners were recruited by the respondent No.4 and all of them were subject to its Cadre and Recruitment Rules. He submitted that the very same question came up before the Division Bench of this Court in W.P.No.8906/2021 c/w 8030/2020 where the Division Bench of this Court held that "there is no dispute with - 46 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No.

45513 of 2011 regard to the fact that applicants herein were directly appointed by KSIC. Therefore, State Government's contention that applicants are not entitled for pension merits consideration. It further held that "We may record that the applicants had an option to choose, whether to be governed under the State Government or the KSIC. Applicants are chosen to be governed by the KSIC. Once, they have exercised their option, they cannot claim the benefits available to those who are governed by the State Government Rules. It is also an undisputed fact that the applicants have availed Contributory Provident Fund benefits available to them under the KSIC Scheme. Hence, they are estopped from claiming pensionary benefits from the State Government. " He also relied upon the judgment of the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of U.P. Roadways Retired Officials and Officers Association Vs. State of U.P. and Another - 2024 SCC Online SC 1818, where the Hon'ble Apex Court held that "the High Court, under the impugned judgment, has observed that the appellants having received retiral benefits including the benefit under the Employees Provident Fund Scheme, cannot be permitted to turn around and contend that they should also be given - 47 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No.

45513 of 2011 pension. We have also considered this aspect of the matter and we approve the observations of the High Court on the principle that a party to the litigation cannot be permitted to approbate or reprobate. " The learned Additional Advocate General submits that the petitioners having once subscribed to a Employees Provident Fund Scheme, cannot now turn around and claim that they are to be treated as Government servants and that they are entitled to pension on par with the Government servants.

The learned counsel for the respondent No.4 has placed on record the Karnataka State Sericulture Development Institute Contributory Provident Fund Regulations. As per Regulation 3, Sub Regulation II, a 'Member' means "any person in the service of the Institute either at Head Office or elsewhere who has been duly admitted as subscriber to the Karnataka State Sericulture Development Institute Contributory Provident Fund. The respondent No.4 has constituted a trust, evidenced by a deed entered into between the respondent No.4 and several officers of the State Government and contemplated a fund known as "Karnataka State Sericulture Development - 48 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 Institute Employees Provident Fund" for the benefit of its employees. The trust so constituted operates the fund contributed by the respondent No.4 as well as the employees of respondent No.4. The learned counsel therefore contends that the Cadre and Recruitment Rules relied upon by the learned counsel for the petitioners has to be read in light of the Karnataka State Sericulture Development Institute Contributory Fund Regulations. He contends that what is not provided under the rules framed by the respondent No.4, could be borrowed from KCSR, 1958 and that therefore Rule 285 of KCSR is inapplicable to the petitioners. He contends that the petitioners have all contributed to the fund and hence, they cannot now turn around and claim that they are entitled for a pension on par with the employees of the State Government.

I have considered the submissions of the learned counsel for the petitioners as well as the learned counsel for the respondent No.4 and learned Additional Advocate General.

8. It is not in dispute that the petitioners are all employees who were regularly recruited by respondent No.4 and were governed by Cadre and Recruitment Rules. Rule 33 of - 49 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 Cadre and Recruitment Rules relied upon by the learned counsel for the petitioners which is referred supra, applied only "in so far as they are related and applicable to employees of the KSSRDI". Therefore, when the petitioners had admittedly subscribed to a Provident Fund Scheme under the Karnataka State Sericulture Development Institute Contributory Provident Fund Regulations, 1982, and had contributed towards the fund and when the respondent No.4 had also contributed to an equal portion to the fund, the petitioners cannot now turn around and claim that they are employees of the State Government and therefore, are to be treated on par with the employees of the State Government for the purposes of grant of pension.

9. Rule 2A and Rule 285 of KCSR is applicable to a Government servant and not to an employee of an autonomous institution who have subscribed to the provident constituted by the institution. As rightly contended by the learned Additional Advocate General, the judgment of the Division Bench of this Court in W.P.No.8906/2021 c/w W.P.No.8030/2020 as well as the judgment of Hon'ble Apex Court in UP Roadways Retired Officials and Officers referred above are squarely applicable to the facts and - 50 - NC: 2024:KHC:30798 WP No. 45513 of 2011 circumstances of this case and the petitioners are not entitled to be treated as Government servants, in view of Cadre and Recruitment Rules framed by the respondent No.4.

10. In that view of the matter, the petitioners are not entitled to any reliefs in this writ petition and hence the writ petition lacks merits and is dismissed. Sd/- (R. NATARAJ) JUDGE HJ List No.: 1 Sl No.: 33
