No. 7891 of 1995, in which<\/p>\n<p>the claim of the petitioner was for a direction to the<\/p>\n<p>Government that the pensioners be reimbursed of<\/p>\n<p>any money spent by them either as indoor or<\/p>\n<p>outdoor patients in any recognized institute of all<\/p>\n<p>India repute without any reference by Government<\/p>\n<p>Doctors for going for treatment in those institutes.<\/p>\n<p>The   Writ   Application   was     disposed      of   noticing<\/p>\n<p>Government Circular, whereby the facility of re-<\/p>\n<p>imbursement     have    not    been       allowed     to    the<\/p>\n<p>pensioners as per clause 21 of that Circular. The<\/p>\n<p>Writ Application was disposed of giving direction to<\/p>\n<p>the State to frame scheme within three months from<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                  3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the date of Order for making proper arrangements<\/p>\n<p>to re-imburse the amount to the pensioners for the<\/p>\n<p>medicines, which could not be made available to<\/p>\n<p>them from the Government dispensaries and they<\/p>\n<p>had to purchase from open market. It was also<\/p>\n<p>directed that pensioners shall be entitled to re-<\/p>\n<p>imburse from the Government Departments where<\/p>\n<p>they served, for the medicines they had to buy for<\/p>\n<p>the pensioners or their wives and so far clause 21 of<\/p>\n<p>the Circular was concerned, which negatived the<\/p>\n<p>facility of reimbursement to the pensioners that was<\/p>\n<p>struck   down.   In   this   Writ   Application   specific<\/p>\n<p>direction was issued to the State Government to<\/p>\n<p>give facility of reimbursement to the pensioners.

As informed, subsequently, this amount<\/p>\n<p>is enhanced to Rs. 2,00\/- per month. But so far a<\/p>\n<p>full fledged scheme relating to reimbursement of<\/p>\n<p>medical expenses to the pensioners are concerned,<\/p>\n<p>has not been framed as yet.\n<\/p>\n<pre>         Counsels,          appearing      on     behalf      of\n\nRespondent     State,        have      informed      that    the\n\n<\/pre>\n<p>Government has framed a scheme, that is still<\/p>\n<p>awaiting for approval of the Cabinet and in the<\/p>\n<p>meantime the Respondent Authorities are examining<\/p>\n<p>the medical facilities available in other States to<\/p>\n<p>their employees and the pensioners.\n<\/p>\n<p>         I fail to understand that the issue like<\/p>\n<p>reimbursement        of      medical      expenses     to    the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners or the Government employees whether<\/p>\n<p>can be delayed for such a long period. The order was<\/p>\n<p>passed in the Writ Application in the year 1996 that<\/p>\n<p>was also affirmed by the Apex Court in the year<\/p>\n<p>1998. We are in the year 2011 and the claim of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners   relating       to   reimbursement       of    their<\/p>\n<p>medical bills incurred in 2001 and 2004-05 are still<\/p>\n<p>awaiting for framing of a scheme in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>Without going into the intricacies of the policy<\/p>\n<p>making    powers       of   the   State    Government       and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                           5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>      interference in this matter by the judiciary, I direct<\/p>\n<p>      the Respondents to reimburse the amounts claimed<\/p>\n<p>      by the petitioner, which incurred while undergoing<\/p>\n<p>      treatment for their heart ailment.
