Reported in: (1998)3UPLBEC2372

O.P. Garg, J.1. The petitioner appeared in High School Examination, 1997 as a private candidate with Roll No. 1847182. His result has been withheld on the ground that the petitioner had not deposited the examination fee within time though the Examination form was duly forwarded to respondent-Board by the Principal of Chandra Devi Shiksha Niketan Uchchatar Madhyamic Vidyalaya, Pokhari, Hardoi.2.

S.H.A. Raza, J.1. In Uirendra Pal Singh and others v. District Assistant Ragistrar, Co-operative Societies, Etah and another. 1980, UPLBEC 202, Hon'ble Supreme Court observed :'That though the age of retirement of employees of some of the co-operative societies was originally 60 years under the U.

Regulation 24 (ii) itself provides that if before the coming into operation of the Regulations the society had entered into any contract with an employee on the date of his employment whereby he was entitled to continue beyond 58 years. The rule of retirement at the age of 58 years shall not apply and the age of retirement shall be governed by the contract. Therefore, if in any case there is a contract between a Cooperative Society and an employee entered into before the Regulations came into force stipulating the age of retirement as 60...
