The applicant wants the aforesaid punishment to be quashed and thereafter his case for promotion be considered. 2. A preliminary objection has been raised by the respondents to say that the grievance raised by the applicant in this application and the relief claimed for, do not fall within the purview of ‘service matters’ as defined in Section 3(o) of the AFT 2 Act. It comes with the ‘exclusion clause’ as contemplated in the definition i.e. in the clause of : ‘all cases arising out of Summary Court Martial except where the punishment is of dismissal or imprisonment for more than three months’, it is said that all summary disposal and trial matters within the purview of the Army Act, 1950, the Navy Act, 1957 and the Air Force Act, 1950 are not service matters and, therefore, the Tribunal does not have jurisdiction to deal with the issue in question.
