The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals challenging the discharge of the appellant from the Army on medical grounds. The court upheld the decisions of the Armed Forces Tribunal, which found that the appellant was properly discharged under the relevant Army Rules due to his medical condition and the lack of suitable sheltered appointments. The court confirmed that the discharge was in accordance with the law and did not violate any procedural requirements.
