What is the objective of establishing Cyber Appellate Tribunal under the Information Technology Act, 2000?
Answer & Explanation:
The Cyber Appellate Tribunal (CAT) has been established with the objective to hear appeals from any person aggrieved by the order of the Controller or an adjudicating officer under the Information Technology Act, 2000. Thus, CAT acts as a forum to seek redressal for such grievances. However, the jurisdiction of this Tribunal cannot extend to hearing any other application or petition that is not an appeal from the order of the Controller or an adjudicating officer.
