Justice delayed is justice denied. It can not be more true seeing the status of justice today.
Justice is one of the fundamental right of every citizen. But people are not getting justice in time. It is unfortunate that millions of cases are pending in courts. Sometimes there are avoidable things in which dates after dates are wasted for unnecessary reasons or even intentionally. This can be easily addressed.
1. More frequent lok adalats.
2. More family courts to solve family issues.
3. Social courts to solve social issues and PIL.
4. Civil cases can be disposed in three hearings, each at a gap of one week.
- First Hearing - All parties submit complete list of relevant documents and written statements.
- Second Hearing - Arguments
- Third Hearing - Order
Any party asking for change of date must give valid reason with evidence and pay some fine. Case should not be deferred for next date for small reasons or excuses. Every date must be fully utilized.
If one party puts in all papers and say that this is all we have to declare then one opportunity should be given to other party to declare their documents and case must get decided on next date on the basis of available documents.
Reasons must be given in orders to show basis of order to improve satisfaction and feeling of fairness. This will reduce appeals.
5. Time bound investigations and Fast track courts in criminal cases.
It is often said, where there is a will there is a way. System can improve if sufficient will is applied.
