ORDER

ANWAR ZAHEER JAMALI, J. --- It seems that the petitioner has been non-suited by the Federal Service Tribunal ("the Tribunal") through the impugned order dated 12.5.2011, solely on the ground of jurisdiction, as by making reference to the judgment dated 6.10.2009 in C.P. No. 1188L of 2014, the Tribunal has arrived at the conclusion that the State Bank of Pakistan has no statutory rules, therefore, it lacked the jurisdiction to entertain the grievance of the petitioner. Learned ASC for the petitioner strongly contends that the State Bank of Pakistan has statutory rules governing the terms and conditions of service of its employees, therefore, such observations of the Tribunal recorded in the impugned judgment are contrary to the factual position. In this regard, he has made reference to the case of Muhammad Tariq Badr v. National Bank of Pakistan (2013 SCM R 314).

2. Contention raised needs consideration. Leave to appeal is accordingly granted.
