An administrative tribunal has exclusive jurisdiction to determine an application made by a person relating to terms and conditions of his service to the republic including pension rights and violation of fundamental rights or in respect of any action taken in relation to him as a person in the service of the Republic (Muslim Uddin Vs. Bangladesh (Spl), 64 DLR (2012) AD 161). However, such a person making an application to the Administrative Tribunal must be aggrieved by any order of a higher authority.
