Abstract: The judiciary in India has been instrumental in shaping the development and functioning of tribunals as a mechanism for specialized dispute resolution. With the increasing complexity and volume of cases, tribunals were introduced to reduce the burden on traditional courts and ensure faster adjudication in specific domains such as taxation, administrative disputes, and service matters. The judiciary has been instrumental in ensuring that tribunals operate within the framework of constitutional principles, particularly by upholding judicial independence and the rule of law. Through landmark decisions, the courts have addressed challenges related to the autonomy, efficiency, and fairness of tribunals. Additionally, the judiciary has provided guidelines for their establishment, composition, and functioning to ensure they meet the standards of justice delivery. This paper examines the judiciary's role in the development of tribunals in India, focusing on its efforts to strike a balance between specialized adjudication and upholding constitutional protections.
