Description
The higher judiciary often need to consult compilation of case laws on same or similar legal issues. Need for such a compilation was long felt by the judges, lawyers and military authorities. This is the first and only book covering rulings given by Supreme Court and various High Courts on military law and service conditions of the armed forces as well as of civilians paid from the Defence Estimates and ex-servicemen. All the important judgments, reported or unreported, have been classified under main headings and sub-headings and are listed subject-wise in a order chronological order. For easy reference to readers, it provides different citations of judgements which have appeared in leading journals along with table of cases. Part II of the book contains The Army Act, 1950 and The Army Rules, 1952. The first three editions of the book and the supplement thereafter were very well received by the readers and proved a complete sell out. The thoroughly revised and updated fourth edition contains relevant case laws pertaining to ex-servicemen, service pensioners, and para-military forces. Rulings on western defence forces have been added to facilitate a better understanding of juristic interpretation. This volume will be invaluable as a text book for military training institutions, members of the bar as well as Staff Officers serving in military units and formations. It will also help ex-servicemen and next-of-kin to update themselves about admissible benefits and the latest case laws. It is a handy reference work for international readers.
