    CASE SUMMARY: CWP-14492-2026 The High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed the Union of India's petition challenging the Armed Forces Tribunal's order granting Ex-Sepoy Anil Kumar Sharma disability pension at 75% (rounded up from 55%). The court held that since Sharma was medically fit at enrolment and contracted disabilities (prolapse intervertebral disc, diabetes, hypertension) during service, these are presumed attributable to military service under settled Supreme Court precedent. The court upheld both the grant of disability pension and the rounding-off benefit, finding no perversity in the Tribunal's orders and dismissing both petitions. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
