Filing Reason

Previous Decisions

The Armed Forces Tribunal, New Delhi, was moved under Section 14; the outcome of that proceeding is not mentioned

Issues

Whether the appellant was required to obtain prior permission before applying for a civil post under AFO 33/2017, and whether failure to do so justified non-recommendation of his NOC
