Currently, the DRT at Chandigarh serves Jammu & Kashmir.
A Bench of Justices Abhay S Oka and Augustine George Masih asked Solicitor General Tushar Mehta why the government was setting up DRT benches in all States if approaching Chandigarh DRT virtually was a feasible remedy for those in the region.
The Court highlighted the unique topography of Jammu & Kashmir, and stated that it requires a DRT bench.
“If you are saying that then why is government making tribunals and benches in all States? See the topography in Jammu Kashmir, it will have to be done,”
