The Tribunals Reforms Bill, 2021 was introduced in Lok Sabha today after a similar Bill (pending from the Budget Session) was withdrawn. Today’s Bill comes after the Supreme Court judgement struck down some provisions of the Ordinance which brought the provisions of the earlier Bill into force in April. A quick timeline:
