#Judicial Service

The Gauhati High Court has ruled that Registrars in Labour Courts and Industrial Tribunals are part of the judicial service under Article 235, stripping the Labour Department of any authority to transfer them. This decision reinforces judicial independence by placing administrative control firmly with the High Court, setting a precedent for similar tribunals across India.

Gauhati High Court ruled that newly created judicial posts cannot be merged with vacancies advertised under an earlier notification, violating recruitment norms. The judgment mandates recalibration of the 25% LDCE quota and sets a precedent for strict compliance in judicial service recruitments, impacting Mizoram Judicial Service officers and future hiring processes.
