Supreme Court Reviews Benefits for Medically Discharged Military Cadets
The Supreme Court is considering benefits for cadets medically discharged from military training due to disabilities, even if they are not classified as ex-servicemen. The court urged the government to revisit the 2015 Sabharwal Committee recommendations, which proposed treating such cadets as ex-servicemen and providing disability pensions. It also suggested states and Union Territories consider reserving jobs for these cadets under ex-military personnel quotas to improve their employment prospects.
