Retired defence personnel's own pension file fully disclosable; §24 armed-forces exemption not applicable to personal pension records.
The §24 exemption applies to operational/intelligence records of defence forces, not to an individual retired personnel's own pension-sanction file. Records of pension computation, arrears, commutation, disability-pension assessments remain accessible to the pensioner under RTI via PCDA.
