Opposition walks out as Rajya Sabha passes Bill to form National Tribunal Commission
The Rajya Sabha passed a Bill on Tuesday to establish a National Tribunal Commission (NTC) for appointing chairpersons and members of various tribunals. The Lok Sabha had approved it the previous day. Opposition parties walked out after their leader, Mallikarjun Kharge, was barred from speaking. Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal said the NTC will ensure transparent, independent, and merit-based appointments without altering tribunal jurisdictions. This move aims to streamline justice delivery and ease business operations.
