Other Tribunals (Article 323B)

Subject: Polity

Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth

Covers tribunals for tax, industrial, environmental, and other specialized disputes. Established to streamline justice delivery and reduce the judiciary’s workload by leveraging domain expertise. Examples include the National Green Tribunal (NGT) for environment-related cases and Income Tax Appellate Tribunal. While they expedite dispute resolution, critics highlight concerns about independence from executive control and adherence to judicial norms. Parliament or state legislatures can create these bodies by enacting specific laws. Courts have recognized tribunals but also emphasized the principle of judicial review, ensuring they don’t bypass constitutional safeguards. Efficiently run tribunals foster quick and informed decisions in niche areas of governance.
