Superannuation
Superannuation, connotes a distinct meaning. It ordinarily means, unless otherwise provided for in the statute, that not only he reaches the age of superannuation thereof, but also becomes entitled to the retiral benefits thereof including pension. 'Voluntary retirement' could have fallen within the afore-mentioned expression, provided it was so stated expressly in the scheme, HEC Voluntary Retd. Emps. Welfare Society v. Heavy Engineering Corporation Ltd., AIR 2006 SC 1420.Superannuation, in relation to an employee, means the attainment by the employee of such age as is fixed in the contract or conditions of service as the age on the attainment of which the employer shall vacate the employment.

Superannuation and termination
Superannuation and termination, means the former takes place automatically on an employee reaching a particular age for which a notice is not required. Hence, the latter cannot include the former. The import of two is entirely different, PKG Udyog Sangh v. Jit Ram, (1975) Lab IC 1484 (Punj)....

National insurance
National insurance. The (English) National Insur-ance Act, 1911 (1 & 2 Geo. 5, c. 55), introduced by Mr. Lloyd George, established a wide system of compulsory state insurance covering both ill-health and unemployment, which is based upon premiums contributed in part by the employer, in part by the employee, and in part by the State. The Act consisted of three parts, the first dealing with National Health Insurance, the second with Unemployment Insurance, and the third contained miscellaneous provisions. This Act remained the basis of National Health Insurance, although the subject of very extensive amendment, until the National Health Insurance Act, 1924, consolidated the law. The law has been consolidated again by the (English) National Health Insurance Act, 1936 (26 Geo. 5, and 1 Edw. 8, c. 32), amends and repeals the whole of the Acts passed in 1920, 1922, 1924 and 1928.

Resignation and retirement

Sanwar Mal, (2004) 3 SCC 412 (419)...
Special reason
Special reason, means yet another consequence would be that if any public servant succeeds in protracting the criminal proceedings to the stage of superannuation he can also claim the benefit of special reasons, if the High Court's reasoning is to be accepted. We find the High Court's approach not only erroneous but pernicious, and therefore, impermissible in law. Such a ground cannot by any stretch of imagination be treated as 'special reason', Jagjeevan Prasad v. State of Madhya Pradesh, (2000) 8 SCC 22: 2000 SCC (Cri) 1450....
