#retirement policy

Delhi High Court dismissed a petition challenging the superannuation age of GREF/BRO medical officers, holding that retirement age policy is an executive prerogative beyond judicial review unless arbitrariness is proven. The ruling reaffirms that parity claims under Article 14 do not override policy decisions absent manifest discrimination.

MP High Court quashes premature retirement order, affirming that Medical Officers with 20+ years of service are entitled to retire at 65 under amended Fundamental Rules. The ruling underscores the state's obligation to retain experienced medical professionals, especially in rural areas, and mandates consequential benefits for affected officers.
