## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF LAW AND JUSTICE (SHRI KIREN RIJIJU)

(a): The  primary  responsibility  of  the  development  of  infrastructure  facilities  for  the judiciary rests with the State Governments. The Union Government has been implementing a  Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme  for  the  development  of  infrastructure  facilities  for  the Judiciary by providing financial assistance to State Governments / UTs in the prescribed fund-sharing  pattern  between  the  Centre  and  States.  The  scheme  is  being  implemented since 1993-94. It covers the construction of court buildings and residential accommodations for judicial officers of the district and subordinate judiciary. A sum of Rs. 9445.46 crores has been released under the Scheme so far since its inception, out of which Rs.  6001.15  crores  (63.53  %)  has  been  released  since  2014-15.    The  scheme  has  been extended from 2021-22 to 2025-26 with a budgetary outlay of Rs. 9000 crores including a central share of Rs. 5307.00 crores. Besides the construction of court halls and residential quarters, the scheme now also covers the construction of lawyers' halls, digital computer rooms, and toilet complexes in the district and subordinate Courts. 21,159 Court Halls and 18,557  residential  accommodation  have  been  made  available  for  judicial  officers  of  the District and Subordinate judiciary in the country. In addition, 2,673 court halls and 1,662 residential units are under construction in various States.

(b) & (c):  The proposal for setting up of National Judicial Infrastructure Authority of India (NJIAI) was discussed in the conference of Chief Ministers and Chief Justices held in New Delhi on 30.04.2022, wherein it was resolved not to set up the National Body, and instead it  was agreed to form a Committee for Judicial Infrastructure at the State Level in which the  Chief  Minister  of  State  and  Chief  Justice  of  the  High  Court  would  be  having  their nominee and would be working in close coordination.

(c): As per  information  made  available  by  the  High  Courts  /  State  Governments,  the State-wise details of number of Court Halls and Residential Units completed during the last three years is at Annexure-I . The statement giving State-wise number of ongoing projects of  Court  Halls  and  Residential  units    under  the  Centrally  Sponsored  scheme  for  the Development of Infrastructure facilities for Judiciary as on 30.11.2022 is at Annexure-II. (d): The State-wise statement of funds released during the last five years is at AnnexureIII.

(e): Disposal of pending cases in courts is within the domain of the judiciary.  No time frame has been prescribed for disposal of various kinds of cases by the respective courts. Government has no direct role in disposal of cases in courts. Timely disposal of cases in courts depends on several factors which, inter-alia, include availability of adequate number of judges and judicial officers, supporting court staff and physical infrastructure, complexity  of  facts  involved,  nature  of  evidence,  co-operation  of  stake  holders  viz.  bar, investigation agencies, witnesses and  litigants and  proper application of rules  and procedures. There are several factors which may lead to delay in disposal of cases.  These, inter-alia,  include  vacancies  of  judges,  frequent  adjournments  and  lack  of  adequate arrangement  to  monitor,  track  and  bunch  cases  for  hearing.  The  Central  Government  is fully  committed  to  speedy  disposal  of  cases  in  accordance  with  Article  21  of  the Constitution and reducing pendency.

The National Mission for Justice Delivery and Legal Reforms was set up in August, 2011 with the twin objectives of increasing access by reducing delays and arrears in the system and enhancing accountability through structural changes and by setting performance  standards  and  capacities.  The  Mission  has  been  pursuing  a  coordinated approach for phased liquidation of arrears and pendency in judicial administration, which, inter-alia, involves better infrastructure for courts including computerization, an increase in strength  of  subordinate  judiciary,  policy  and  legislative  measures  in  the  areas  prone  to excessive  litigation,  re-engineering  of  court  procedure  for  quick  disposal  of  cases  and emphasis on human resource development.

The  major  steps  taken  during  the  last  eight  years  under  various  initiatives  are  as follows:

## (i) Improving  infrastructure  for  Judicial  Officers  of  District  and  Subordinate

Courts: As  on  date,  Rs.  9291.79  crores  have  been  released  since  the  inception  of  the

Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme  (CSS)  for  Development  of  Infrastructure  Facilities  for  the Judiciary  in  1993-94.The  number  of  court  halls  has  increased  from  15,818  as  on 30.06.2014 to 21,159 as on 30.11.2022, and number of residential units has increased from 10,211 as on 30.06.2014 to 18,557 as on 30.11.2022, under this scheme. In addition, 2,673 court halls and 1,662 residential units are under construction (as per Nyaya Vikas Portal). The  Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme  for  the  Development  of  Infrastructure  Facilities  for Judiciary has been extended till 2025-26 at a total cost of Rs. 9,000 crores, out of which the central  share  will  be  Rs.  5,307  crores.  Besides,  the  construction  of  court  halls  and residential units, it would also cover the construction of lawyer's halls, toilet complexes, and digital computer rooms. There are 21,159 court halls and 18,557 residential units made available under the scheme so far. 2673 court halls and 1,662  residential units are under construction as part of ongoing projects

## (ii) Leveraging Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for improved

justice  delivery: The  Government  has  been  implementing  the  e-Courts  Mission  Mode Project throughout the country for information and communication technology enablement of  district  and  subordinate  courts.  The  number  of  computerised  district  &  subordinate courts has increased to 18,735 so far. WAN connectivity has been provided to 99.3% of court  complexes.  New  and  user-friendly  version  of  Case  Information  Software  has  been developed  and  deployed  at  all  the  computerized  district  and  subordinate  courts.  All stakeholders, including judicial officers can access information relating to judicial proceedings/decisions of computerized district & subordinate courts and high courts on the National Judicial Data Grid (NJDG). As on 01.12.2022, litigants can access the case status of  over  21.74  crore  cases  and  19.80  crore  orders/judgments  pertaining  to  these  courts. eCourts services such as details of case registration, cause list, case status, daily orders & final  judgments  are  available  to  litigants  and  advocates  through  the  eCourts  web  portal,

Judicial Service Centers (JSC) in all computerized courts, the eCourts Mobile App, email service, and SMS push, and pull services. A video conferencing facility has been enabled between 3,240 court complexes and 1,272 corresponding jails. With a view to handling the COVID- 19 challenges better and  making the transition to virtual hearings smoother, 619 e-Sewa  Kendras  have  been  set  up  at  court  complexes  to  facilitate  lawyers  and  litigants needing  assistance  ranging  from  case  status,  getting  judgments/orders,  court/case-related information,  and  efiling  facilities.  Rs.  5.01  crore  has  been allocated  for  providing equipment  in  video  conferencing  cabins  in  various  court  complexes  to  facilitate  virtual hearings.  Rs.  12.12  crore  has  been  allocated  for  1,732  help  desk  counters  for  efiling  in various court complexes.

21 virtual courts have been set up in 17 States/UTs viz. Delhi (2), Haryana, Tamil Nadu,  Karnataka,  Kerala  (2),  Maharashtra  (2),  Assam,  Chhattisgarh,  Jammu  &  Kashmir (2), Uttar Pradesh, Odisha, Meghalaya, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Tripura, West Bengal, and Rajasthan to try traffic offences. As on 03.03.2022, these courts have handled more than 1.69 crore cases and realized more than Rs. 271.48 crore in fines.

Video  conferencing  emerged  as  the  mainstay  of  the  courts  during  the  Covid lockdown period as physical hearings and normal court proceedings in the congregational mode were not possible. Since Covid lockdown began, the district courts heard 1,65,20,791 cases  while  the  high  courts  heard  75,80,347  cases  (totalling  2.41  crore)  via  video conferencing  till 31.10.2022.  The  Supreme  Court  had  2,97,435  hearings  since  the lockdown period upto 03.09.2022.

## (iii) Filling up of vacant positions in Supreme Court, High Courts and District and

Subordinate  Courts: From  01.05.2014  to  05.12.2022,  46  Judges  were  appointed  in Supreme  Court.  853  new  judges  were  appointed  and  621  additional  judges  were  made permanent  in  the  high  courts.  Sanctioned  strength  of  Judges  of  High  Courts  has  been increased from 906 in May, 2014 to 1108 currently. sanctioned and working strength of judicial officers in district and subordinate courts has increased as follow:

| As on      | Sanctioned Strength   | Working Strength   |
|------------|-----------------------|--------------------|
| 31.12.2013 | 19,518                | 15,115             |
| 06.12.2022 | 24,994                | 19,205             |

However, filling up of vacancies in subordinate judiciary falls within the domain of the State Governments and high courts concerned.

- (iv) Reduction  in  Pendency  through  /  follow  up  by  Arrears  Committees: In pursuance of a Resolution passed in Chief Justices' Conference held in April, 2015, Arrears Committees have been set up in all 25 High Courts to clear cases pending for more than five  years.    Arrears  Committees have been set  up under District courts  as well.   Arrears Committee  has  been  constituted  in  the  Supreme  Court  to  formulate  steps  to  reduce pendency of cases in high courts and district courts. In the past, Minister of Law & Justice has taken up the matter with the Chief Justices of High Courts and the Chief Ministers of states drawing their attention to the cases pending for more than five years and to take up pendency reduction campaign. The Department of Justice has developed an online portal for  reporting  by  all  High  Courts  on  the  compliance  of  Arrears  Eradication  Scheme guidelines of the Malimath Committee Report.
- (v) Emphasis  on  Alternate  Dispute  Resolution  (ADR): Commercial  Courts  Act, 2015  (as  amended  on  20 th August,  2018)  stipulates  mandatory  Pre-institution  Mediation and  Settlement  (PIMS)  of  commercial  disputes.

(vi) Initiatives  to  Fast  Track  Special  Type  of  Cases: The  Fourteenth  Finance Commission endorsed the proposal of the Government to strengthen the judicial system in states  which  included,  inter-alia,  establishing  Fast  Track  Courts  for  cases  of  heinous crimes;  cases  involving  senior  citizens,  women,  children  etc.,  and  urged  the  State Governments  to  use  the  additional  fiscal  space  provided  in  the  form  of  enhanced  tax devolution form 32% to 42% to meet such requirements. As on 31.10.2022, 838 Fast Track Courts are functional for heinous crimes, crimes against women, and children etc. To fast track criminal cases involving elected MPs / MLAs, ten (10) Special Courts are functional in nine (9) States/UTs (1 each in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, and 2 in NCT of Delhi).

(viii) Lok Adalat is an important Alternative Disputes Resolution Mechanism available to common people. It is a forum where the disputes/ cases pending in the court of law or at pre-litigation  stage  are  settled/  compromised  amicably.    Under  the  Legal  Services Authorities (LSA) Act, 1987, an award made by a Lok Adalat is deemed to be a decree of a civil court and is final and binding on all parties and no appeal lies against thereto before any court.  In order to reduce the pendency of cases in courts and also to settle the disputes at  pre-litigation  stage,  Lok  Adalats  are  organized  by  Legal  Services  Institutions  at  such intervals as it deems fit.  Lok Adalat is not a permanent establishment.  However, as per Section 19 of the LSA Act, 1987, Lok Adalats are organized by Legal Services Institutions as  per  requirement.    National  Lok  Adalats  are  organized  simultaneously  in  all  Taluks, Districts and High Courts on a pre-fixed date.
