The Armed Forces Tribunal is now functional at Delhi, Chennai, Jaipur and Chandigarh

The Armed Forces Tribunal, which has jurisdiction over both service as well as court-martial issues concerning the three services, is now operational at Delhi, Chennai, Jaipur and Chandigarh.

The Chandigarh Bench of the Tribunal was inaugurated by Justice T S Thakur, Chief Justice of the Hon’ble Punjab & Haryana High Court who is going to be elevated as a Judge of the Supreme Court today. The bench having jurisdiction over Chandigarh, Punjab, Haryana, J&K and HP was notified with effect from 16 Nov 2009.

A comprehensive news-report on the same can be accessed by clicking here.

It was also a good day for civilian retirees. The applicability of a new stipulation on encashment of leave has been taken back to 01 Jan 2006 instead of the earlier cut-off date of 01 Sept 2008. The letter issued yesterday evening by the Govt of India to this effect can be accessed and downloaded by clicking here.

  2. one doubt, navdeep.
    does it mean the tribunal is only fo review/ appeal.
    will the gcms continue as before or will it now be the perview of the tribunal.
    at least one offshoot will be that the brass hats will think twice before ordering gcms and so on.

  8. Dear Annony 17 Nov/ 1007 AM,

    While it may be little disappointing for some of us but it had been officially clarified by IAF that these are nothing but rumours. No such proposal had been moved by any of the three armed forces/Govt of India.

    Best wishes.
