    First, second and third round table conferences for the establishment of a Federal Court in
    India. Section 200 of The Government of India Act, 1935 laid the foundation for the federal
    framework in India. Ultimately, the Federal Court of India was established in 1937 as a
    judicial body under the provision of The Government of India Act, 1935 with original,
    appellate and advisory jurisdiction. It functioned till the Supreme Court in India was
    established in 1950 and in Pakistan in 1956 after partition. The seat of the Federal Court was
