A sitting judge of the Supreme Court, Brijesh Kumar, has been appointed the chairman of the tribunal. A judge of the Allahabad High Court, S.P. Srivastava, and another of the Kolkata High Court, D.K. Seth, shall be the members. In its first sitting, the tribunal shall formulate the terms of reference on the issue.
It has been given three years to come out with its report.
