Executive order over riding rules of article 309

Sir,

Pension to govt servants is protected in Article 309.But without promulgation under Article 309, 

1. Executive order for New pension scheme was notified on 22.12.2003, followed by a PFRDA ordinance which was notified and lapsed April 2003.

2. Again, a fresh PFRDA ordinance was notified immediately. 

3. After many ordinances lapsed, finally it became Act after passed by parliament in 2014 giving retrospective effect on the executive order notification dated 23.12.2003.

4. Till that time, an executive order notification was over riding pension rules of Article 309.

I have come across many supreme court judgements ruling executive order cannot over ride or change or alter the rules under Article 309 and some not favouring retrospective effect too.

In view of the above, the implementation of NPS can legally valid only  after it became law. Can we approach court on the above contention?

Thanks in advance

Vacancies notified/advertised reg old pension scheme

respected experts,

As per the OM dated 03.03.2023 of DOPT, those who were recruited against a vacancy/post which were notified/advertised before 22.12.2003 are eligible for Old Pension Scheme.

i am giving a brief of our issue.

1. In our dept, Recruitment Rules for a post along with the vacancies were notified in the gazette in 13.09.2003

2. for which advertisement for recruitment was issued by the SSC during 2006 and exam held in 2006. we got selected.

3. the vacancies belong to the year of 2002 to 2006. but all the vacancies were notified in the RR vide Gazette dated 13.09.2003.

we have represented our claim with Dept. if our dept rejects, can we get favourable judgement from courts? becoz Ernakulam CAT has given judgement in favour of vacancy aised if before the notification of New Pension Scheme. Some are getting rejection letters saying the notification we referred is just a RR notification. but we claim that this is not just RR notification and vacancies notification too as per the OM dated 03.03.2023 as it nofitied the number of vacancies and selection process, eligiblities and etc.

thanks in advance for your replies.

Build houses together by friends

sir,

my friends, a group of six, have planned to purchase a plot and to construct six houses for their dwelling as flats by their equal monies. how to legalize this plan? some one advises them to register a house building society. but they think that their rights should be equal and not make this plan commercially, only for their dwelling purpose. please guide them.
