U.O.I & Ors vs Manjeet Singh

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming the grant of disability pension to the respondent under the relevant rules, stating that the disabilities 'Generalised Tonic Clonic Seizure' and 'Neurotic Depression' were indeed attributable to his service in the Army. The Court emphasized that the denial of the pension was arbitrary and illegal, as the respondent had been invalided out of service due to these disabilities. The judgment reinforced the principle that service-related disabilities warrant pension benefits under the applicable regulations.
