Service Law. Though compulsory retirement in public interest is non-punitive, the power remains subject to judicial scrutiny as a public power on the touchstone of manifest arbitrariness, perversity or mala fides. Compulsory retirement cannot be used as a backdoor disciplinary measure to circumvent the safeguards of Article 311 of the Constitution. Supreme Court
