Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Armed Forces Tribunal's dismissal of the Appellants' applications challenging their ineligibility for the Technical Equipment Officer (TEO) position, citing the eligibility criteria outlined in the AG's Branch/MP-2 letter dated 17.01.2007. The Court emphasized that the criteria included a minimum of 10 years of service and specific qualifications, which the Appellants did not meet. Consequently, the Court affirmed the Tribunal's decision, reinforcing the importance of adhering to established eligibility standards in military appointments.
