Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Armed Forces Tribunal's decision, affirming that the amendments to Para 4(a) and deletion of Para 4(b) of AI 37 of 78, effective from 20.03.2013, were valid and did not violate the appellant's rights. The Court found that the appellant, having failed to qualify in her first two chances, was not entitled to a third chance due to the new age limit provisions. The ruling clarified that the amendments were applicable to all similarly situated officers, thus maintaining the integrity of the amended regulations.
