Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the Armed Forces Tribunal's decision granting disability pension to the respondent, despite the Medical Board's assessment that the disabilities were not attributable to or aggravated by military service. The Court emphasized that the Tribunal correctly interpreted Regulation No. 153 of the Pension Regulations for Indian Air Force, 1961, allowing for pension if disabilities are found to be constitutional in nature. The Court ruled that the Tribunal's findings were justified and directed the appellants to release the disability pension with interest from the date of discharge.
