            Learned AAG, at the very outset, has submitted that in some of the cases, the applications have been filed belatedly. Perhaps, at the time when the cause was accrued, the children / child were minor and they moved application(s) for exercising their rights on reaching majority. In that case, all such applications moved by the children of the deceased employees shall be considered, however, those applications which were filed beyond the period of two years on reaching the age of majority then by applying the principle as laid down in the latest pronouncement of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Province of Sindh v. Waheed Ali and others in C. Ps. Nos. 482-503-K of 2016, speaking order shall be passed.

            All such applications shall be disposed of in the light of the relevant rules i.e. 11-A of the Sindh Civil Servants (Appointment, Promotion and Transfer) Rules, 1974, and the latest pronouncement of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Province of Sindh v. Waheed Ali and others in C. Ps. Nos. 482-503-K of 2016.

            All the petitions stand disposed of in the above terms along with pending applications, if any.
