No need to seek approval of Hon'ble Minister :
It has been mentioned under Rule 57 OCS (Pension) Rules , 1992 to issue list of officers retiring every year i.e. on l day of July each year of all Government Servants under their Administrative Control within the next 18 to 24 months in the prescribed format i.e. O.C.S Pension Form —A see Rule 5 7(2)] to Accountant General Odisha, Appointing Authority, Administrative Department concerned, Director of Treasuries and Inspection, Odisha and the Estate Officer, GA & PG(Rent) not later than 31st July each year.
Rule-40 of O.C.S (Pension) Rule 1992 also speaks about the principles to be adopted for issuance of said retirement notification. Retirement on attaining the age of superannuation is automatic.
The very intention of the above rules is to avoid overstayal in service beyond the date of retirement, submission of pension paper, vacation of Government Quarter, NDCs etc. to facilitate finalization of pensionary benefits on the date of superannuation itself
It is, therefore advised that since issue of retirement notice is a very routine matter, the Pension Sanctioning Authority/ Delegated authority by Administrative Departments! HoDs ! Head of Office can approve and issue such retirement notice without requiring approval of higher authority.
