In a pivotal ruling, the NCDRC has directed Haryana government to allocate a residential plot to retired head constable Naresh Kumar, overturning a previous state decision. The ruling emphasizes ‘contra proferentem’ due to the lack of clear exclusions in the reservation criteria for ex-servicemen. The bench found Kumar was entitled to the allotment under existing rules.
