Major Navdeep Singh

Major Navdeep Singh is a practicing advocate in the Punjab & Haryana High Court. He is the founder president of the Armed Forces Tribunal Bar Association at Chandigarh. He is a member of the International Society for Military Law and the Law of War at Brussels and writes extensively on military, legal and public policy issues.

Navdeep has been a national service volunteer-reservist with the Territorial Army in the past. The Territorial Army is a unique force of volunteers who, while carrying on with their civil vocations, wear uniform for a few days in a year during their spare time in peace so that they can bear arms for the nation’s defence during war and national emergencies. He has voluntarily served in counter-insurgency and operational areas during High Court vacations and has been decorated with a record number of eleven Commendations from the Army, Air Force and also a Tri-Services Institution.

Besides constitutional law and civil & military service matters, he has worked in the fields of rights of disabled soldiers, military widows & kin and also for World War II veterans. He strongly advocates judicial independence and freeing of Tribunals from the tacit control of the executive.

Based on the sentiment expressed by the PM for curbing unnecessary litigation, Navdeep was made a part of a High Level Committee of Experts constituted by the then Defence Minister for reducing litigation initiated by the MoD and to strengthen the system of redressal of grievances, where he functioned pro bono.
