Central Administrative Tribunals from "summary" of Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
Central Administrative Tribunals have been established under Article 323-A of the Constitution of India. These tribunals have been set up to resolve disputes and grievances related to recruitment, conditions of service, promotions, and disciplinary matters of public servants. The main objective behind the creation of these tribunals is to provide a speedy and efficient resolution of disputes within the administrative setup. The jurisdiction of Central Administrative Tribunals extends to all civil servants of the Union government, civil servants of the states, and employees of public sector undertakings. These tribunals have been given exclusive authority to adjudicate on matters related to the recruitment and conditions of service of government employees. They act as an alternative forum to the regular courts for resolving administrative disputes. The decisions of Central Administrative Tribunals are binding on the parties involved in the dispute. However, these decisions can be challenged in the High Court on certain grounds. The tribunals are headed by a Chairman and Vice-Chairman who are retired High Court judges. The members of these tribunals are appointed by the President of India on the recommendation of a selection committee. Central Administrative Tribunals are meant to function independently and impartially. They are expected to uphold the principles of natural justice and provide a fair hearing to all parties involved in a dispute. These tribunals play a crucial role in ensuring transparency and accountability in the functioning of the administrative machinery.- Central Administrative Tribunals serve as specialized bodies to adjudicate on disputes related to government employees. They contribute to the efficiency of the administrative system by providing a quick and effective mechanism for resolving disputes within the public service setup.
