Here's the scoop: Meena Devi's case was being heard in the Delhi High Court, but now it's heading to the Armed Forces Tribunal. Let's break down what happened.
On December 22, 2025, the Delhi High Court, with Judges C. Hari Shankar and Om Prakash Shukla, wondered if they should be handling Meena Devi's case. They pointed out that cases like hers usually go to the Armed Forces Tribunal.
"We had asked the lawyer for the petitioner to explain why this case should be heard here..." - Judge C. Hari Shankar
Meena Devi's lawyer, Mr. Sumit Kumar Jha, asked the court to move the case to the Tribunal instead of starting over. The court agreed, saying it was fair since the case had been in their hands for a while.
The court ordered the case records to be sent to the Armed Forces Tribunal. This means the Tribunal will continue from where the High Court left off. They even set a date for the parties to show up: January 9, 2026.
"The record of the case before this Court would be treated as the record of the Tribunal..." - Judge C. Hari Shankar
The case is now out of the Delhi High Court's hands, but if Meena Devi isn't happy with what the Tribunal decides, she can still take further legal steps.
So, there you have it! Meena Devi's case is moving to a new chapter with the Armed Forces Tribunal.
