Dharamvir Singn vs Union Of India & Ors on 2 July, 2013
(12) In the light of the principles laid down by the Hon'ble
Supreme Court in Dharamvir Singh v. Union of India and
others (2013) 7 Supreme Court Cases 316, we unhesitatingly
hold that if not attributable, the loss of eye sight was
certainly aggravated by the Military service. Since the
MAMTA disability suffered by the petitioner was 20%, he is entitled

I attest to the accuracy and
integrity of this document
CWP-13619-2014 5
to the benefit of disability element of pension in accordance
with Reg. 173 of Pension Regulations for the Army, 1961.
(13) This takes us to the second ground of rejection of
the petitioner's claim by the Tribunal, namely that the claim
was barred by limitation.
