Judicial Members of CESTAT Transferred
THE President has transferred six out of the ten Judicial Members of the CESTAT. Every Bench except Kolkata has a transfer. Technical Members are not transferred. Six of the ten Technical Members will retire in 2015 and three will retire in 2016, unless of course the retirement age is enhanced. There is a strong rumour (perhaps a wish) going around that retirement age for all Government employees will be enhanced to 62, for academics and judges to 65.
It is learnt that some new Members will be appointed in CESTAT soon.
