The Armed Forces Tribunal (AFT) has quashed policy amendments under which service rules were altered retrospectively, thereby denying extension of service and grant of permanent commission to many short service commissioned officers in the medical branch.
The Armed Forces Tribunal (AFT) has quashed policy amendments under which service rules were altered retrospectively, thereby denying extension of service and grant of permanent commission to many short service commissioned officers in the medical branch.
Disposing of a bunch of petitions, the Tribunal has held that the impugned policy was bad in the eyes of law and could not be sustained. Holding the petitioners eligible for grant of extension in terms of the earlier policy that was in vogue before the impugned policy, the Tribunal has also quashed the release orders of the doctors and directed the Defence Ministry to consider their cases for grant of permanent commission.
