Present Status of our Civil Appeals in SC
We, the legal team of AIRIEF had a meeting first with Sri R K Singh and thereafter jointly with the Sr Advocate, Shri Nidhesh Gupta on 29/4/2026 and discussed the issue of legal limbo and related matters in respect of our Civil Appeals pending in SC, in detail.
We shared our grief and disappointment on derailment of our cases. Entire pensioners’ fraternity was very much hopeful that in Dec 2025, we would have got the final favourable judgment. Now our cases are not even being listed before any bench.
Shri R K Singh elucidated on the present scenario of conflict between the current Government Policies and the judiciary’s interpretation of the Service Rules enacted three decades or more earlier.He stated that this conflict is prominent in service related matters andpensionary benefits as the courts are holding that statutory service rules prevail over the executory interpretations obliterating the sacrosanct principles of equality and equity enshrined in our constitution.He quoted several instances of such conflict affecting thousands of aspirants, employees and pensioners.
Shri Nidhesh Gupta reiterated that during the court proceedings held on 22-23 Sep 2025, we could succeed in placing before the bench our submissions dismantling the erroneous conclusions and directions of DHC convincingly and pleading the intent of the various rules of the LIC Pension Scheme 1995 to eliminate the grave discrimination in payment of DR and Basic Pension among different artificially created groups of the pensioners. This compelled the Respondents to depute the Attorney General of India to ensure that the judgment is not delivered in favour of the pensioners by hook or by crook as can be observed from repeated requests for adjournments for one or the other reasons by none other than the Attorney General himself. Our legal fight is continuing for several years, but there would be hardly any occasion when the Attorney General had appeared.Such dilatory tactics and change of bench served the purpose of derailing our cases from the main stream. Our cases lost the priority in the doldrums of rules.
Our cases have been heard to a greater extent. As per the directions of the Bench the common convenience compilation was submitted. The bench had also allocated time and sequence for each advocate as well as set the issues to be assailed by the Respondents. In the meantime, roaster is changed. Now our cases have to be treated as per the provisions of ‘Order III Rule 7’ of the Supreme Court Rules, 2013.
The position is no doubt poignant. Keeping in view the prevailing scenario, we have to move cautiously and remain vigilant to safeguard the interest of thousands of pensioners. Our advocates have assured that they are watchful and attentive and ensure that our cases are listed and decided judicially without any hindrance from any corner. The Sr Advocate agonizingly informed that he himself is highly disappointed with the unfortunate turn and he fully understand the grief of the senior pensioners. He, himself is keeping an eye over the case and looking for an opportune time to move ahead. We also expressed our concern on the legal fee burden for which he assured that he is with us for this cause.
Under the given circumstances, we have to appreciate that:
-
i.Our pleadings are convincing and the case is strong on law points,
-
ii.May it take more time, we will get justice, (sorry state of affairs)
-
iii.We have to be cautious and alert to counter any ulterior move of the Respondents, and
-
iv.As I suggested earlier, all the petitioner associations should face the situation jointly with collective wisdom.
This is true that the imbroglio we are facing is painful. But, we cannot leave it. We have to brave all the hurdles and take the cases to their logical end.
With best wishes,
M P Agnihotri.

Krishna Came First — The 12 Parallels to Jesus the Church Doesn’t Want You to See | Spinoza: Spinoza's philosophy: Transcripts: 3,000 years before anyone ever spoke the name of Jesus, before Bethlehem,
before the church, before a single gospel was written, there was already a child. A child born not from a human father, but from something divine. A child whose birth terrified a king, who performed miracles from infancy, who was raised among shepherds, and whose followers believed he was God on earth. His name was not Jesus. It was Krishna. And for over 2,000 years, one institution has relied on the assumption that you would never seriously compare the two. Now, before you react, before you dismiss this as another internet claim or cheap provocation, slow down because what you're about to hear is not speculation. It's not a conspiracy theory. It's built on texts with verifiable dates, documented traditions, and a chain of evidence that has been sitting in plain sight for nearly two centuries. And yet, most people never hear about it. Not because it's hidden, but because no one ever puts all the pieces together into one clear, continuous argument. So, let me ask you something, and I want you to actually answer this in your head. What if the story you grew up trusting? The story you were told was unique. The story you were told could only have happened once in human history. What if that story wasn't unique at all? Now, don't think about it intellectually yet. Go back emotionally. It's December 24th. You're in your house, maybe your parents, maybe your grandparents.
how narratives are protected, and how truth moves across cultures without asking for permission. So this is where we begin. Not in Bethlehem, not in Rome, but in ancient India, long before the gospels, where a story was already being told with details that are going to feel uncomfortably familiar. If you've never seriously looked into this before, the first thing you need to understand is simple. Krishna is not a minor figure, not a fringe myth, not a late invention. In the Hindu tradition, Krishna is one of the most central and revered divine figures considered an incarnation of the God Vishnu, the sustainer of the universe. His story is preserved in some of the most important religious texts whose written forms date back centuries before the Christian era and whose oral traditions reach even further deep into the second millennium B.C. CE. This matters because what we're about to examine is not a vague similarity between distant myths. We're looking at a narrative structure that already existed fully formed long before the gospels were ever written. And once you see that structure clearly, it becomes very difficult to unsee it. In that earlier tradition, the story begins with a decision made by the divine itself. Vishnu the sustaining force of the cosmos chooses to descend into the human world not symbolically not metaphorically but literally to take human form to enter history to be born as a child that child would be Krishna.
Now listen carefully to how that birth is described. Krishna is conceived not through ordinary human reproduction but through a direct act of divine intervention. The divine essence of Vishnu is said to enter the womb of a woman named Devaki without physical union, without biological causation as we normally understand it. The husband is present but the conception does not belong to him. It belongs to the divine choosing that body as its point of entry into the world. If that structure feels familiar, it should because in the Gospel of Luke 1, the angel announces to Mary that the Holy Spirit will come upon her and the power of the most high will overshadow her. Joseph is present, but the child is not his. The conception belongs to the divine. same mechanism, function, same theological purpose to establish from the very beginning that this child is not just human, that this is a being whose origin breaks the ordinary chain of cause and effect. At this point, someone might say, well, maybe that's just coincidence. Maybe cultures naturally create similar stories about divine births. And that's a fair reaction for now because what comes next is where that explanation starts to break down because the birth itself is only the beginning of the pattern. In the story of Krishna, the moment the child is about to be born, a king learns of a prophecy. His name is a. And the prophecy tells him that this child, the child of Devaki, will be the one who destroys him, overthrows him, ends his power. So what does a tyrant do when he believes his throne is threatened by a newborn child? He doesn't wait. He doesn't negotiate. He eliminates the threat before it grows. Kamsa orders the imprisonment of Devaki and her husband. And one by one, he kills their children at birth. Seven of them trying to prevent the prophecy from coming true. Now, stop for a second. Don't jump ahead. Just hold that image. He orders the killing of all male children under a certain age in Bethlehem and its surrounding region. Different continent, different culture, different time, same decision, same fear. Sam soluc. And now we're no longer dealing with a single parallel. We're looking at a sequence, a pattern that unfolds step by step. Joseph receives a message in a dream. Take the child and his mother. Flee to Egypt. Escape the reach of Herod and remain hidden until the danger has passed. Again, same structure. The child is born under threat. The father is warned. The escape happens at night. The child is hidden. The massacre follows. The divine figure survives. At some point, the question stops being, "Are these similar?" and becomes something much harder to ignore. How many identical elements can you stack before coincidence to the land. And this is where the divine child grows up. Not in a palace, not surrounded by elites, but among shepherds,
