💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court criticized the Army for a biased decision in denying a Short Service Commission officer, Major Ravinder Singh, a permanent commission. The court found evidence of prejudice when Singh was not allowed to seek alternative employment or consider for a permanent commission. The court ordered the production of records related to the selection board's previous decision on Singh's permanent commission application, citing concerns about the treatment of officers and the lack of motivation for people to join the Indian Army.
