'Unconstitutional': Supreme Court strikes down Tribunal Act; slams government

The Supreme Court has declared the Tribunal Reforms Act unconstitutional, criticizing the government's repeated attempts to undermine tribunal independence. A bench led by CJI Gavai found the Act to be a near-replica of a previously struck-down ordinance, violating separation of powers and judicial independence. This ruling emphasizes constitutional supremacy over parliamentary discretion.
