New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday asked the Centre to set up a panel for a uniform national policy regarding post-retirement benefits like services of drivers, security and stay in government accommodations while travelling for former high court judges.
Observing that there was a wide disparity in benefits extended by different states, a bench comprising Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana asked Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre, to set up within two weeks the panel, which in turn, give its report on the issue within three months.
