UNION OF INDIA vs RAM PRAKASH

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Punjab and Haryana High Court's decision allowing the respondent's claim for disability pension. The Court examined the findings of the Release Medical Board, which determined that the respondent's disabilities were constitutional and not attributable to Air Force service, as per the relevant service regulations. The Court upheld the High Court's ruling, emphasizing the need for clear evidence linking the disability to service conditions, thus granting the respondent's claim for pension under the applicable service rules.
