TEJ RAM DHARIWAL (RETD.) vs UNION OF INDIA . — C.A. No. 3748/2003

Case Summary: C.A. No. 003748/2003 On April 25, 2003, the Supreme Court allowed retired Army officer Tej Ram Dhariwal's appeal against the High Court's order, finding the High Court's decision unsatisfactory as it was "far too cryptic" and failed to consider any contentions or set out facts. Dhariwal had challenged circulars governing increment provisions for ex-servicemen, claiming they created artificial classification and sought advance increments equal to his completed years of Army service. The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and remitted the matter back to the High Court for fresh consideration in accordance with law.
