The Union government is expected to introduce the Tribunal Reforms Bill, 2026 in the Lok Sabha on Monday, according to the List of Business on the Lok Sabha's website. The bill aims to create the National Tribunals Commission (NTC), which will oversee the appointment process for tribunals across the country. The NTC will also review tribunal performance and maintain a National Tribunals Grid.
Congress lawmaker Jairam Ramesh expressed support for the bill, which is meant to implement Supreme Court directions from the Madras Bar Association judgment of November 19, 2025. The Supreme Court struck down key provisions of the 2021 Tribunal Reforms Act for violating judicial independence and separation of powers, and directed the Centre to establish the NTC within four months.
The draft bill, seen by HT, fixes the tenure of the NTC chairperson to five years or until age 70, and members to five years or until age 67.
