GENERAL COURT MARTIAL vs ANILTEJ SINGH DHALIWAL

The Supreme Court held that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction under Article 226 by quashing the Court Martial's order without identifying an error of law apparent on the face of the record, as established in Nagendra Nath Bora v. The Commissioner of Hills Diven and Appeals (1958) SCR 1240. The Court emphasized that judicial review is limited to ensuring that tribunals do not exceed their statutory powers and correctly apply the law. The appeal against the High Court's judgment was allowed, reinstating the Court Martial's findings and sentence under the Army Act.
