NEW DELHI: The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT), which adjudicates service matters of central government employees, will not function till April 20 due to the ongoing lockdown, according to a Personnel Ministry statement issued on Tuesday.
The tribunal’s principal bench here and its branches across the country have not been functioning since March 20 due to lockdowns to check the spread of the novel coronavirus.
“The functioning of the tribunal, through video conferencing was also not possible due to the absence of the facility and the hurdles in procuring the same. It was proposed to review the situation after April 14 depending upon the decision which the Government of India may take,” the statement said. (AGENCIES)
