Union Of India & Ors vs Amar Singh

The Supreme Court upheld the judgment of the High Court which ruled that the respondent's service is governed by the Central Reserve Police Force Act, 1949, and not by Rule 24 of the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules, 1972. The Court found that the dismissal of the respondent was valid under Section 11(1) of the Act and Rule 27 of the CRPF Rules, 1955, but he was entitled to pensionary benefits as per Section 2 of the CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972. The appeal by the Union of India was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions regarding the respondent's entitlements.
