PAVNESH KUMAR vs UNION OF INDIA

The Supreme Court examined whether the respondent BSF's declaration of the appellant as medically unfit for the post of Sub-Inspector (GD) after initially being found fit was justified. The Court considered the timeline of medical fitness assessments, including the appellant's fitness on 16.12.2019 and subsequent review on 27.02.2020. The Court emphasized the importance of consistent medical evaluations and the appellant's right to fair assessment, ultimately holding that the declaration of unfitness was unjustified. The appeal was allowed, and the appellant was entitled to be treated as medically fit for the post.
