Release pension, benefits to Ciza Thomas in 2 weeks: HC to govt
Kochi: In a major setback to the state govt, Kerala high court on Friday ordered the release of all terminal benefits due to Ciza Thomas, former vice-chancellor of APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University (formerly Kerala Technological University), within two weeks. Allowing the petition filed by Thomas seeking the disbursement of pensionary benefits and monthly pension, a division bench of Justices A Muhamed Mustaque and Johnson John held that the govt violated her fundamental rights by denying her terminal benefits. Thomas retired from service on March 31, 2023. On the same day, a charge memo was issued to her, alleging that she had assumed charge as the vice-chancellor without the approval of the govt. However, despite these rulings, the state govt continued to withhold her death-cum-retirement gratuity and other retirement benefits, prompting her to approach the court once again. The only justification provided by the govt for withholding her pensionary benefits was that it had filed a review petition before the apex court against the dismissal of its special leave petition challenging the quashing of proceedings against Thomas. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trending in in 2025: Local network access control [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo The court observed that no disciplinary proceedings were pending against her, no adverse claims were raised, and a liability certificate was already issued. Citing Rule 3 of Part III of the Kerala Service Rules (KSR), it clarified that the govt may withhold pension only if departmental or judicial proceedings are pending. In the absence of such proceedings, the withholding of pensionary benefits was held to be unlawful. The court further criticised the govt's actions, stating that they amounted to a flagrant violation of her fundamental rights and constituted harassment for having accepted the office of the vice-chancellor at the instance of the former chancellor and governor. She was serving as senior joint director at the technical education department earlier. The high court subsequently quashed the charge memo proceedings, and this decision was later upheld by the Supreme Court. It remarked that such gross injustice to a distinguished govt servant could not be overlooked. It reaffirmed that the right to pension is a property right under the Constitution and cannot be denied except through a procedure established by law. Regarding the issue of interest, the court held that the petitioner can approach the tribunal, which is competent to decide the matter. Thomas is currently serving as the temporary vice-chancellor of the Kerala University of Digital Sciences, Innovation and Technology (Digital University Kerala), in accordance with the chancellor's directive.

India's richest train is not the fastest, but rakes in Rs 1760666339 per year, not Shatabdi Express, Vande Bharat, Tejas, the train is...
(File) Rajdhani Express: The Indian Railways boasts the world's fourth largest rail network, operating an average 13,000 passenger trains per day that ferry millions of travelers to their destinations across the country. While the national transporter earns revenue from ferrying freight, the majority of its income comes from selling tickets to passengers. But have you ever wondered which train is the top revenue-earner for the Indian Railways? No, its not the Shatabdi Express, or the new Vande Bharat Express, the title of India's richest train is held by the KSR Bengaluru Rajdhani Express, the most profitable train for the Northern Railway. India's richest train While the Rajdhani Express is not the fastest train operated by the Indian Railways, its is the highest-earning train for the national transporter. According to data revealed by the Indian Railways, the KSR Bengaluru Rajdhani Express, which runs from Hazrat Nizamuddin in Delhi to KSR Bengaluru City Junction, is its top revenue earner. The express train raked in Rs 1,76,06,66,339 for the Indian Railways in the financial year 2022-23, with 509,510 people travelling in the train during this period, as per the data. Top revenue-earners for Indian Railways Besides the KSR Bengaluru Rajdhani Express, other top revenue-earning trains for Indian Railways are the Sealdah Rajdhani Express, which runs between New Delhi and Kolkata. The Sealdah Rajdhani Express earned Rs 1,28,81,69,274 in the 2022-23 fiscal year, carrying 509,164 passengers. The Dibrugarh Rajdhani Express, which runs between New Delhi and Dibrugarh in Assam, is India's third most profitable trains, making Rs 1,26,29,09,697, and carrying 474,605 passengers, in FY 2022-23. The Mumbai Tejas Rajdhani Express sits at the fourth spot among Indian Railways' top earners. The train, which carried over 4,85,794 passengers from New Delhi and Mumbai Central and vice-versa, in the 2022-23 fiscal, earned Rs 122 crore during the period. While new modern trains like the Vande Bharat have undoubtedly strengthened India's rail network, but its the workhorses like Rajdhani and Shatabdi Express, which continue to remain the backbone of Indian Railways.
