No chiefs for tribunals in Telangana

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: Tribunals in Telangana State are virtually defunct as 11 of them are running without chairman/presiding officer. Since November 16, the VAT tribunal headed by Judge Anupama Chakravarthy has been assigned the additional works of the labour, industrial, cooperative and other tribunals. An advocate said filling up of posts in tribunals will speed up resolution of pending cases and help the state government earn more revenue. “Yet, we do not know why the vacancies exist.” A source at the VAT Tribunal said Labour Tribunal 1 has 400 cases, Tribunal 2 has 120 cases, and Tribunal 3 has 130 cases pending while Industrial Tribunal 1 has 500 cases, 2 has 173 and 3 has 53 cases pending before them. The sources said work at VAT Tribunal is completely paralyzed while cases are being heard and disposed of in tribunals where members were present.
