The Supreme Court expressed serious displeasure at the Union Government’s repeated adjournment requests in the ongoing case concerning the Tribunals Reforms Act, 2021.

Enacted on 13 August 2021, the law aims to streamline India’s tribunal system by abolishing several appellate bodies and transferring their functions to the High Courts. It replaced the Tribunals Reforms Ordinance, 2021, consolidating provisions related to appointments, tenure, service conditions, and removal of tribunal members.

The Act seeks to reduce delays in justice delivery, promote judicial efficiency, and ensure uniformity and transparency in the functioning of tribunals across the country.
