6 I   respectfully   say   and   submit   that   the   Government   of   Gujarat,   Finance   Department   authorized   the   NPPA   at   25%   of   the   pay   vide   resolution no.PGR/1009/9/Pay cell (M) dated 03.10.2012 to class I and   Class  II   Veterinary   Officer  of   Animal   Husbandry   Department   only,   and   their pay fixation with NPPA is authorized by the audit officer accordingly   and hence submitted to the Director  of Pension and Provident Fund  for   final pension payment and the pension   is sanctioned by the DPP as per   Sixth   pay   commission,   while   petitioners  are   class   III   employees   and   no   Government Resolution authorizing NPPA under Sixth Pay commission is   issued up to this date and for that reason their pay fixation with NPPA is   not authorized by the audit officer and without such authorization their   pension cases cannot be sent to Director of Pension and Provident Fund for   final pension payment. 

10 I respectfully say and submit that as per Gujarat Veterinary Council   Act, these cadres can do only minor veterinary services under supervision   & guidelines of registered veterinary practitioner under rule 30(b) and the   same   is   annexed   herewith   and   marked   as   Annexure   R­VI.   It   is   further   submitted that after considering the above information, Government has   not sanctioned NPPA to these class III para veterinarian posts in 6th  pay   commission.  It is further  submitted  that class  I and  Class  II cadres  are   veterinary doctors  and registered  by veterinary counsel.  They have  been   sanctioned   25%   NPPA   in   parity   of   Central   Government   doctors.   The   registered doctors are also getting NPPA in other states of the country. The   Government has sanctioned NPPA to veterinary doctors vide Government   Resolution of Finance Department dated 3rd October, 2012, hence case of   class 1 and 2 officers cannot be compared with these class 3 cadres. 

15 I   respectfully   say   and   submit   the   State   Government,   Finance   Department vide resolution No.PGR/1009/pay cell (M) dated 03.01.2012   sanction   25%   of   pay   as   NPPA   to   class   I   and   Class   II   officers   of   this   department and their pay fixation has approved by the audit i.e. Examiner   HC-NIC Page 6 of 15 Created On Thu Apr 14 00:36:49 IST 2016 C/SCA/10953/2014 JUDGMENT Local Fund, Gandhinagar. While in the case of the petitioners, the pay of   all the  petitioners  are  fixed  as per  6th  pay commission  norms  including   NPPA by this department, but audit has not approved due to absence of a   separate   resolution   sanctioning   NPPA.   Hence   such   cases   cannot   be   forwarded  to DPP for  sanctioning  for final pension  by this department.   And now government has disapproved proposal of benefit of NPPA so this   department cannot give this benefit. 

16 I respectfully say and submit that the pensionary benefits are not   sanctioned with 15% NPPA because of above describe and not because of   any   department   proceedings   either   pending/initiated   against   the   petitioners. 

17 I further respectfully say and submit that the pension is to be paid   immediately  the  employee   retires   and  accordingly  pension  case   is to be   prepared prior 24 months of the date of the retirement of the employee.   The word pension means whatever the amount of the employee entitles for,   after   the   date   of   his/her   retirement.   In   this   case   without   audit   authorization petitioners are not entitled to get pension with the benefit of   NPPA under the 6th  pay commission. The petitioners have to forgo NPPA   and   adjust   the   recovery   of   NPPA   they   received   under   the   6th  pay   commission against the final pension. They refused to do so and agreed for   a provisional pension. While petitioner no.12, 19, 23, 25, 27, 29, 30, 38,   41   and   42   are   receiving   final   pension   (without   NPPA)   under   6th  pay   commission which is annexed herewith and marked as Annexure R­VIII.
