Governor’s Sanction Mandatory for Extraordinary Pension Under UP Civil Services Rules, 1981 | SC Bars Judicial Direction Without Administrative Consideration : SC
The Supreme Court has ruled that extraordinary pensions under the Uttar Pradesh Civil Services (Extraordinary Pension) Rules, 1981 require mandatory Governor’s sanction and cannot be ordered by courts without prior administrative evaluation. This reinforces the separation of judicial and executive powers in service benefits and ensures widows of deceased officers must reapply through proper channels, not judicial mandate.
