Supreme Court to Review Delhi’s Progress on Judicial Infrastructure: Focus on Basic Facilities in Lower Courts

On March 21st, the Supreme Court of India is set to deliberate on the matter of basic facilities in lower courts, marking a crucial juncture in the ongoing pursuit of judicial infrastructure enhancement. This follows the issuance of guidelines by the apex court to the Delhi government during the previous hearing, emphasizing the urgent need for the creation of robust judicial infrastructure in the national capital.

In a significant move, the Supreme Court had mandated several key initiatives to address the longstanding issues plaguing the lower courts in Delhi. These initiatives included the construction of residential complexes tailored for judicial officers and other personnel, the expedited appointment of staff at the district level, and the provision for temporary courtrooms. The court underscored the importance of adhering to these directives within the stipulated timeframe, signaling a firm commitment towards bolstering the judicial apparatus.

The directive comes in response to persistent concerns surrounding the inadequate infrastructure in lower courts, which has impeded the effective dispensation of justice and hindered the overall efficiency of the judicial system. Overcrowded courtrooms, inadequate housing for judicial officers, and staff shortages have been among the primary challenges confronting the judiciary, particularly in urban centers like Delhi.
