2. At present, the Governor of Punjab is concurrently designated as the Administrator of the Union territory of Chandigarh. In his capacity as Administrator, he is required to exercise the said statutory powers and discharge the said quasi-judicial functions. As a result, several appeals and review cases are pending for disposal by the Administrator and it is not practiable for him to dispose of them expeditiously. It is, therefore, proposed to vest such powers of the Administrator in any officer or other authority as may be specified in this behalf by the Central Government, or the Administrator by notification in the Official Gazette.
