Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined appeals against a High Court judgment that dismissed writ petitions filed by ex-servicemen regarding their recruitment in the Punjab Civil Service. The court analyzed the applicability of the Demobilized Indian Armed Forces Personnel (Reservation of Vacancies) Rules, 1972, and the subsequent Punjab Recruitment of Ex-servicemen Rules, 1982. Ultimately, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision, affirming the dismissal of the appellants' claims for reservation in the recruitment process.
