SC rebukes Punjab Govt over pension benefits; threatens heavy compensation

A bench comprising Justice Abhay Oka and Justice Ujjal Bhuyan was hearing a contempt petition against the Punjab Chief Secretary for violating an earlier commitment made by the state's Additional Advocate General regarding the scheme's implementation.
