Lucknow: Nine years after pension was stopped for her and a long legal battle, the daughter of a First World War soldier got justice from the Armed Forces Tribunal (AFT) at the age of about 103 years.
Pension for Siri Kumari Gurung was stopped in 2007 and she was asked to refund Rs 5 lakh on the ground that she was not entitled for two pensions. Her father was a soldier for the country in the First World War and died on March 8, 1916 in Italy.
