The Supreme Court on Monday directed the Chief Justice of Delhi High Court to expeditiously start hearing in the case related to the forced compulsory retirement of an IRS officer of the 1985 batch, who was compulsorily retired in 2019, in accordance with Fundamental Rule 56 (j).
The Supreme Court has refused to consider the petition of an Indian Revenue Service official, challenging the government's decision for compulsory retirement. The court asked the petitioner to go to the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) for relief.
