On 20th December, 2007, the Parliament has enacted an Act known as “The

Complaints with respect to commission, appointments, enrolment and
conditions of service in respect of persons subject to the Army Act, 1950, the
Nave Act, 1957 and the Air Force Act, 1950 and also to provide for appeals
arising out of orders, findings or sentences of courts-martial held under the
said Acts and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto.

Further Section 34 of the Act provides (relevant portion) as under:-

“34.Transfer of pending cases:- (1) Every suit, or other peoceeding pending
before any court including a High Court or other auhtority immediately
before the date of establishment of the Tribunal under this Act, being a suit or
proceeding the cause of action whereon it is based, is such that it would have
been within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal, if it had arisen after such
establishment within the jurisdiction of such Tribunal, stand transferred on
that date to such Tribunal.
