Summary: The Supreme Court disposed of the writ petition filed by the Association of BSF Rule-19 Victims 96-97 seeking pension benefits on 16-04-2026. The Court held that since the petitioners had already approached the Kerala High Court (which disposed the matter with liberty to submit representation), the appropriate remedy is to challenge the competent authority's rejection order before the High Court rather than the Supreme Court, relying on the precedent in Raj Kumar v. Union of India (2006). The petition stands disposed with liberty to pursue the matter before the High Court.
