2014, there were complaints regarding her

bogus B. A. Degree Certificate. She opted for

voluntary retirement from 16-06-2015 and was

relieved from her duties.

The Respondent No. 1 stated that, in the month

of June, the forgery case was registered in the

Quepem Police Station and the police took her

service book and personal file for investigation.

After receiving both the documents, they forwarded

the pension papers to the South Educational Zone,

Margao who refused her final GPF payment and

requested to forward the papers after getting the

report from the Vigilance Department.

4. The Complainant, then filed her Rejoinder

dated 20-03-2020. She stated that she had opted

for voluntary resignation. By subsequent

letters, she requested the Respondent No. 1 to

consider her voluntary resignation as

“voluntary retirement”. She also stated that

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA

SERIES II No. 46

10TH FEBRUARY, 2022

the pension case of the Complainant on

06-04-2016 and it was returned back to the

School seeking details. The Respondent No. 3

stated that the case was re-submitted by the

School and was again returned seeking

clarification.

9. The Respondent No. 3 have further stated that

the pension papers were returned and

re-submitted seven times by the Respondent

No.1 and lastly, on 24-11-2020, the same has

been forwarded to the Directorate of Accounts,

Panaji.

10. At the stage of final arguments, Shri Rohidas

Shetkar, husband of the Complainant was

heard and Respondent No. 1 was absent. Shri

D. Chawdikar, Dy. Director of Education (Legal)

was heard on behalf of the Respondents No. 2

& 3. The Complainant has relied on the

Judgment of Supreme Court in support of his

arguments.

11. In Sudip Chandra Sarkar vs Tata Iron & Steel

Co. Ltd., AR 1994 SC 1064, the Hon’ble

Supreme Court was considering a case where

the plaintiff had rendered continuous service

for 20 years and 8 months and he had

submitted the letter of resignation which was

accepted by the Respondent. On these facts,

the Apex Court held as under:

“The termination of service was thus on

account of resignation of the plaintiff being

accepted by the Respondent. The plaintiff has,

within the meaning of the expression, thus

retired from service of the Respondent and he

is qualified for payment of gratuity in terms of

Rule 6”.

This authority was referred to in the

judgment of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the

case of Sheelkumar Jain vs New India

Assurance Co. Ltd., decided by the Division

Bench of the Hon’ble Supreme Court on

28-07-2011.

it was held therein that the Court will have

to construe the statutory provisions in each

case to find out whether the termination of

service of an employee was a termination by

way of resignation or a termination by way of

voluntary retirement.

12. The husband of the Complainant had argued

that though the Complainant had given a letter

for resignation, the same has to be treated as

voluntary retirement and her pensionary

benefits have to be released.

13. The Respondent No. 3 has stated that the

papers of the Complainant were re-submitted

by the School by letter dated 05-12-2018 for

considering her case as voluntary retirement.

The Respondent No. 3 had then asked the

School for the letter of the Complainant to

consider her voluntary retirement in place of

voluntary resignation and the Order from the

competent Authority accepting the voluntary

retirement.

14. The Respondent No. 3 had stated that the

pension papers were again re-submitted along

with the Court Orders and the School letter

dated 07-01-2019 by the Respondent No. 1 and

subsequently, by letter dated 24-11-2020 and

the same was forwarded to the Directorate of

Accounts.

15. The letter dated 12-02-2021 of the Respondent

No. 1 addressed to the Respondent No.3

indicates that the Respondent No. 1 had

entered the words “Voluntary Retirement” in

her service book as advised by the Director of

Education, Porvorim.

16. Section 18(a) of The Protection of Human

Rights Act, 1993 reads as under:-

“(a) where the inquiry discloses the

commission of violation of human rights or

negligence in the prevention of violation of

human rights or abetment thereof by a public

servant, it may recommend to the concerned

Government or authority—

(i) to make payment of compensation or

damages to the complainant or to the victim

or the members of his family as the Commission

may consider necessary;

(ii) to initiate proceedings for prosecution or

such other suitable action as the Commission

may deem fit against the concerned person or

persons;

(iii) to take such further action as it may think

fit”.

17. Under Section 18(a) of the Protection of Human

Rights Act, 1993, the Commission recommends

that, the Respondents No. 2 & 3 consider that

the Complainant had “voluntarily retired” on

16-06-2015 and ensure that the Complainant

receives her pension and GPF amount in

accordance with law.

18. Under Section 18(e) of the Protection of Human

Rights Act, 1993, the Commission shall send a

copy of the Inquiry Report together with its

recommendations to the Respondent and the

Respondent shall within a period of one month

Office of the Goa Human Rights Commission

Proceeding No. 57/2013

Inquiry Report

The Complainant was working as secondary

teacher at St. Anthony’s High School, Monte de

Guirim since September, 1976 and retired on

31-08-2012 on superannuation. The Complainant has

approached this Commission with a grievance that

although she retired on 31-08-2012, she has not

been paid her monthly pension and also other

terminal benefits even though seven months had

lapsed after her retirement. She has further stated

that all her efforts and meetings with various

officials of Education Department and Headmaster

of the School have gone in vain. She has also stated

that in case the lumpsum amount of terminal

benefits was paid to her and invested in the Bank,

she would have earned some amount of interest for

delayed payment from October, 2012. She has also

claimed interest on such amount for the period of

delay.

2. On the basis of the complaint, this Commission

initially issued notices to the Respondents

No. 1 and 2 i.e. the Director of Education and

Director of Accounts, Panaji–Goa respectively.

However, during the course of inquiry, the

Headmaster, St. Anthony’s High School and

the Chairman, School Managing Committee,

St. Anthony’s School were added as Respondents

No. 3 and 4 respectively and notices were issued to

them. All the Respondents have filed their

respective replies.

3. Thereafter, the Respondent No. 2/Director of

Accounts filed an application dated 21-10-2013

stating therein that the claim of the GPF has been

settled in the month of September, 2013 and the

pension case of the Complainant had been disposed

1266

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA

SERIES II No. 46

10TH FEBRUARY, 2022

of on 11-10-2013. The Respondent No. 1/Director of

Education filed status Report on 16-01-2014

confirming the statement made by Respondent

No. 2. The Complainant did not dispute that her

claim of GPF as well as her pension claim were

settled. However, the Complainant made a

statement that there was a delay in settlement of

her claim for pension and claimed interest. The

matter was therefore posted for hearing on

10-03-2014 on the limited question as to whether

the Complainant can claim interest before this

Commission on which date the Complainant filed

an Affidavit along with several documents in

support of her claim for interest. The Respondent

No.1 filed reply opposing the Affidavit filed by the

Complainant.

4. The Complainant in her Affidavit has stated

amongst other things that there was a delay of

thirteen months in paying her retirement benefits

without delay on her part. She has further stated

that only after filling the present complaint, she

was given benefits as indicated below:

a) Rs.15,40,000/- towards GPF was paid on

05-10-2013.

b) Rs.7,52,350/- towards gratuity was paid on

30-10-2013.

c) Rs. 5,21,336/- towards commutation was paid

on 30-10-2013.

d) Rs. 3,09,827/- towards pension arrears was

paid on 30-10-2013.

e) Rs.1,67,189/- towards Leave Encashment was

paid on 20-12-2013.

5. We have perused the records of this case. We

have also heard the Parties.

6. Admittedly, there is a delay of 12 months and

5 days in payment of GPF amount. Similarly, there

is a delay of 13 months in payment of gratuity

amount, commutation of pension and arrears of

pension. There is also delay of 12 months and 20

days in payment of Leave Encashment. The limited

question for consideration is whether the

Respondents have justified this delay in payment

of terminal benefits to the Complainant.

7. The root cause for delay in payment of terminal

benefits to the Complainant is on account of the

fact that the Option Form to switch over CPF to

GPF (Pensionary Scheme) of the Complainant was

not properly forwarded by the Respondent

No. 3. In para-5 of the reply, the Respondent No.1

has stated that the Respondent No. 3 made an error

by sending the switch over Option Form on their

own without there being Government approval for

the same and illegally deducted the contribution

of the Complainant sent to the Directorate of

Education (North Education Zone). It is further

stated that the School Authority was requested to

submit month-wise details of the account deposited

to the GPF account of the Complainant for the period

from July, 2007 to April, 2008 along with the

contribution of the Management for the same period

in order to consider the request of the Complainant

for switch over from CPF to GPF (Pensionary

Scheme). It is further stated that since the

information sought for was not received by North

Education Zone, Mapusa, reminder was sent to the

Headmaster of the School to comply with the letter

dated 12-05-2008. Once again the Assistant

Accounts Officer, North Education Zone, Mapusa

sent reminder to the Headmaster asking him to

comply with the letter dated 12-05-2008. Again on

05-08-2009 a second reminder was sent to the

Headmaster to deposit the Management share for

the period from July, 2007 to April, 2008 to the CPF

account of Mrs. Uma Umakant Chodankar and asked

to submit proposal for switch over from CPF to GPF.

The Respondent No. 1 reminded the School

Authorities time and again to send the particulars

and more particularly to pay the contribution

towards the Management share to be credited to

CPF account which was not paid by the School

Authorities. The Joint Director of Accounts of the

Respondent No. 1 wrote a letter dated 15-01-2013

to the School and requested for immediate

compliance of the observation made by the

Directorate of Accounts. On 09-05-2013 the Joint

Director of Accounts, Directorate of Education

informed the Headmaster of the School to deposit

the amount of Management share of CPF in respect

of the Complainant at the first instant in the

Government Treasury and claim reimbursement if

admissible and requested to settle the case at early

date. By letter dated 13-08-2013, the Dy. Director of

Education sent a reminder to the Headmaster and

directed to submit Pension Case and GPF final

payment case duly completed to the North

Education Zone urgently. Again, the Director of

Education vide letter dated 23-08-2013 and

26-08-2013 informed the Headmaster that the School

has failed to submit GPF final payment and Pension

case and warned to take serious action against the

School and directed to submit the case for

finalisation within five days from the issue of the

letter failing which stern action as deemed fit as

per law will be taken. According to Respondent

No.1, the Headmaster of the School and School

Management are responsible for delay in settlement

of pensionary benefits to the Complainant.

8. It is apparent from the records of this case that

the Respondent No. 1 was repeatedly requesting

the Respondent No. 3 to settle the pension case of

the Complainant. In our view the delay in

settlement of GPF claim and pension claim of the

Complainant is on account of the lethargic attitude

of the Respondent No. 3 and Respondent No. 4.

9.As far as GPF claim is concerned, the

Complainant is entitled for interest on delayed

payment as there was no fault on the part of the

Complainant. As per Rule-11(4) of General Provident

Fund (Central Services Rules, 1960) and C&A.G.’s

decisions, the interest is to be allowed in case delay

has occasioned by circumstances beyond the

control of the subscriber and purely due to

administrative reasons.

10. In so far as other terminal benefits are

concerned, there is no specific provision for

payment of interest on delayed payment. But then,

the Authorities cannot be a silent spectator to such

delay for which the Pensioner is not at fault. Non-

payment of terminal benefits to the Complainant in

time has a tendency of infringement of fundamental

rights of the Complainant as envisaged under

Article-21 of the Constitution of India. Consequently,

human rights of the Complainant stand violated on

account of unjustified delay in payment of terminal

benefits to the Complainant in time. The principles

of natural justice demand that the Complainant

who is the victim for delay in payment of her

legitimate dues should be compensated by

awarding a reasonable compensation to be paid by

the defaulting authorities. The amount of other

terminal benefits, other than GPF amount works

out to Rs. 17,50,702.00 (Rupees seventeen lakhs, fifty

thousand seven hundred two only). In case the

Complainant was paid the said amount in time and

had the Complainant invested the amount in fixed

deposit in any bank for a period of thirteen months,

the Complainant would have earned interest more

than Rs. 1,50,000/- (Rupees one lakh fifty thousand

only) at the prevailing interest rates. We therefore

feel that the compensation of Rs. 1,00,000/- (Rupees

one lakh only) shall be appropriate and would meet

the ends of justice.

11. For reasons mentioned above, we make the

following recommendations:

The Respondent No. 1 shall pay interest on

the delayed payment of GPF within a period

of one month as admissible under the Rules.

ii)

Respondent No. 1 shall pay compensation

of Rs. 1,00,000/- (Rupees one lakh only) to

the Complainant on account of delay in

payment of terminal benefits within a

period of one month.

iii) Since the Government is not at fault for
