Summary of CWP/14984/2026 The High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed the petition challenging the Armed Forces Tribunal's order dated 01.04.2026, which rejected the petitioner's prayer to convert removal from service into discharge from service. The court disposed of the petition as not pressed, granting liberty to file a review before the Tribunal to decide the validity of the original removal order dated 16.06.2023, as the Tribunal had only discussed proportionality of punishment without addressing the validity of the removal order itself. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
