The 18th Bench of Central Administrative Tribunal for Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Leh will be inaugurated by the MOS PMO Dr. Jatinder Singh who is also Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions on Monday June 8, 2020 through Video Confernce.
The Central Administrative Tribunal had been established under Article 323 – A of the Constitution for adjudication of disputes and complaints with respect to recruitment and conditions of service of persons appointed to public services and posts in connection with the affairs of the Union or other authorities under the control of the Government. In the statement of object and reasons on the introduction of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985 it was mentioned:
“It is expected that the setting up of such Administrative Tribunals to deal exclusively with service matters would go a long way in not only reducing the burden of the various Courts and thereby giving them more time to deal with other cases expeditiously but would also provide to the persons covered by the Administrative Tribunals speedy relief in respect of their grievances.” JNF
