Sub; Haryana Administrative
Tribunal.
Sir,
I
congratulate you on fulfillment of long pending demand of employees in
establishing Haryana Administrative tribunal. However experience reveals that
single tribunals in a state are not effective. For example AFTs have more than
16,000 pending cases. In my humble opinion, I suggest following state
amendments in Act/Rules.
1. Establishment
of one or more Tribunals in each district of Haryana depending on number of
cases.
2. Administrative
Tribunal should be headed by one person i.e. any retired Judge or an advocate
of Haryana having more than 10 years of service or practice as the case may
be. Preferably retired DJs/ADJs can be
considered for appointment.
3. Establishment
of one or more Haryana Administrative Appellate Tribunals over two or more of
Districts of Haryana depending on number of cases. It should be headed by one
person i.e. any retired High Court Judge or an advocate of Haryana having more
than 20 years of practice. The place of sitting of Administrative Appellate
Tribunal should be in the District having larger number of cases or any place
near to poor employees.
Ideally there should be established one
or more National Administrative Tribunals over two or more States of India for
which separate suggestion is being made to central Government.
In service to nation.
KD
Aggarwal, Advocate.
