UNION OF INDIA vs K.P. SINGH

The Supreme Court upheld the Armed Forces Tribunal's decision mandating the implementation of the Dynamic Assured Career Progression (DACP) Scheme for officers of the Army Medical Corps, citing the need for equal treatment under the scheme as per the Central Government's approval. The Court emphasized that the DACP Scheme is applicable to the AMC cadre and criticized the delay in its implementation by the Ministry of Defence. The appeals by the Union of India were dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's directive for the department to issue instructions for the implementation of the DACP Scheme within three months.
