Text of the short order is reproduced below:-

TASADDUQ HUSSAIN JILLANI CJ.-  For reasons to be recorded later in the detailed judgment, we are persuaded to hold that the interpretation being accorded to rule 8.1 read with rule 8.12 of the Punjab Civil Service Pension rules vide the office memorandum issued by the Government of Punjab dated 22.10.2001 is not only violative of those Rules but also of Article 25 of Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.  These appeals and petitions are therefore dismissed with no orders as to costs.

Special Thanks to Mr. Amir Agha (Canada).
