The Supreme Court allowed the appeal, setting aside the High Court's judgment and restoring Writ Petition No. 2667 of 2000 for reconsideration of the appellant's retirement date. The Court emphasized that the High Court must examine whether the appellant validly retired on 6th January 1996 or is entitled to a later retirement date based on any other birth date. The Court also directed that the remanded writ petition be heard alongside Writ Petition No. 9202 of 2000, which concerns the appellant's reinstatement and back wages, and requested the High Court to expedite the proceedings within six months.
