Central Administrative Tribunal

The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) is a specialized judicial body in India that resolves disputes related to the service matters of government employees. Established in 1985, it addresses grievances regarding recruitment, promotion, disciplinary actions, and other employment issues involving central government officials. The CAT aims to provide a faster and more efficient resolution compared to regular courts, helping to uphold the rights of employees while maintaining administrative efficiency. Its decisions can be appealed in higher courts, ensuring a check on its authority.
