Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined whether the retirement age of 58 for a person with a 60% locomotor disability, as per the relevant Office Memoranda, was valid and applicable. The Court analyzed the validity of the withdrawal of the earlier OM that allowed retirement at 58 and whether the appellant's disability and appointment conditions warranted a different retirement age. The Court upheld the dismissal of the writ petition, affirming the validity of the retirement order and the applicable OM. The judgment clarifies the legal position regarding retirement age for disabled employees under applicable government policies.
