1.3. Reasons for emergence of Quasi-Judicial Bodies in India
♤ Overburdening of judiciary: As the welfare state has grown up in size and functions, more and more litigations are pending in the judiciary, making it over-burdened. It requires having an alternative justice system.
♤ Complexity of laws: With scientific and economic development, laws have become more complex, demanding more technical knowledge about specific sectors.
♤ Cost: Ordinary judiciary has become dilatory and costly, resulting in the emergence of quasi-judicial bodies.
