How the exam will ask it

ಪ್ರಿಲಿಮ್ಸ್

  • Article 323A provides for administrative tribunals for service matters of public servants, while Article 323B covers tribunals for other matters such as taxation and industrial disputes.
  • Articles 323A and 323B in Part XIV-A of the Constitution were inserted by the 42nd Amendment Act, 1976.
  • The National Tribunals Commission is proposed as a statutory body, not a constitutional one, to regulate appointments to tribunals.

ಮೇನ್ಸ್

GS2 Polity: quasi-judicial bodies. Tribunals under Articles 323A and 323B ease the burden on courts, but varying appointment and service conditions raise concerns over independence and executive influence. Uniform rules and a statutory National Tribunals Commission aim to standardise recruitment and remuneration; the way forward is transparent selection, security of tenure and judicial oversight to protect independence.
