NEW DELHI:

A bench of Justices Abhay S Oka and Ujjal Bhuyan called for a policy intervention to address such cases, stressing that personnel who have served the nation should not be subjected to unnecessary legal battles.

"As it is, there are only a few people willing to serve in the armed forces. Why should the Union drag such people to this court? They have served the Union after all. Day in and day out, these matters are brought here," lamented the bench.
