Citation Name: 2024 PLC(CS) 107 QUETTA-HIGH-COURT-BALOCHISTANBookmark this Case Mst. MALALA BIBI VS INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE, BALOCHISTAN, QUETTA S. 4---Constitution of Pakistan, Art. 199---Constitutional petition---Payment of benefits and death compensation---Scope---Petitioner claimed benefits under the Balochistan Civil Servants' and Employees' Benefits and Death Compensation Policy, 2020, as her husband had died during service---Validity---Policy provides a compensation package to the families of civil servants and employees who die or are injured as a result of terrorist activities, as well as death compensation approved by the Government of Balochistan to the family of a deceased civil servant---It also offers one-time financial assistance to the bereaved family of a Government of Balochistan employee who dies during service due to natural causes---Policy is prospective in nature, meaning it does not apply retrospectively---Provisions of the policy do not indicate that it has been given a retrospective effect---Petitioner's husband passed away on June 2, 2020, while the policy was promulgated on August 11, 2020---Since the policy was not in effect when the petitioner's husband died, it cannot be applied retrospectively to cover cases of individuals who died prior to August 11, 2020---As no right had accrued to the petitioner at the time of her husband's death, she was not an 'aggrieved person' under Art. 199(1)(a)(i) of the Constitution---Constitutional petition was dismissed, in circumstances.
