Legitimate Expectation | PSU Employees Entitled to Service Continuation Pending Government Decision on Superannuation Extension from 60 to 62: Andhra Pradesh HC
The Andhra Pradesh High Court has ruled that PSU employees may continue in service beyond 60 years when the state government has formally recommended extending superannuation to 62, even before formal rule amendments. This establishes that a clear, high-level recommendation creates a legitimate expectation protecting employees from abrupt retirement, significantly strengthening job security for public sector workers awaiting policy finalization.
