Supreme Court judge Justice S.K. Kaul on Thursday expressed concern over pending vacancies in various tribunals, even wondering if the court should stay proceedings in these fora until the government woke up and made appointments.
Justice Kaul asked what was the point of government creating tribunals and then keeping the posts vacant for years. “We shall stay everything until and unless the government wakes up and makes appointments. Why should the High Courts be asked to apply their mind to these matters?” Justice Kaul asked.
