AROON KUMAR SINHA vs UNION OF INDIA — C.A. No. 4663/2001

The Supreme Court dismissed Major Aroon Kumar Sinha's appeal challenging his non-promotion to Lt. Colonel rank, holding that his ACRs (Annual Confidential Reports) were not adverse and therefore he was not entitled to relief under the Government Order of June 22, 1989. The court found that the appellant failed to file complaints within the prescribed 60-90 day timeframe after ACR communication and that no injustice had been committed by the respondents in their promotion decisions based on comparative merit.
