Title:\u00a0 Shri G. Karunakara Reddy called the attention of the Minister of Law and Justice to the situation arising out of a large number of cases pending in various courts of the country for a long time and steps taken by the Government in this regard.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0 <\/p>\n

SHRI G. KARUNAKARA REDDY <\/a>(BELLARY<\/a>): Sir, I call the attention of the Minister of Law and Justice to the following matter of urgent public importance and request that he may make a statement thereon:\n<\/p>\n

\u201cThe situation arising out of a large number of cases pending in various courts of the country for a long time and steps taken by the Government in this regard.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u00a0THE MINISTER OF LAW AND JUSTICE (SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ): Sir, the Government is aware of the pendency of cases in the various courts in the country and its increasing trend. The matter of finding remedial measures to reduce the pendency of cases has been discussed with the judiciary and the State Governments in different Conferences of the Chief Ministers and Chief Justice of the High Courts, from time to time. The matter has also been looked into by the Law Commission and Committees constituted for this purpose. Though the speed of disposal of a case in the courts is primarily a judicial function, Government has taken a number of steps to facilitate reduction of pendency and backlog of cases in the courts. Important steps taken by the Government in this regard are:\n<\/p>\n

(1)\u00a0 With a view to liquidating cases pending for long in the Sessions\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Courts, Government introduced a scheme of Fast Track Courts which has been extended upto 31.3.2010. These courts have disposed of 10.42 lakh cases out of 18.21 lakh cases transferred to them.[R10]\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u00a0 <\/p>\n

[r11]\u00a0(2)Government reviews the strength of judges (in the High Courts) <\/p>\n

triennially and ensures prompt filling up of vacancies so that administration of justice does not suffer from inadequate number of judges.\n<\/p>\n

(3) ln respect of filling up of vacancies in the Subordinate Courts, a matter <\/p>\n

falling within the domain of the State Governments, the hon. Supreme Court\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

has given directions to the States in the Malik Mazhar Sultan case.\n<\/p>\n

Government has reminded the State Governments in this regard.\n<\/p>\n

(4) Measures like encouraging alternative modes of disposal and setting up of special tribunals, etc. have been taken so that congestion in the courts is reduced.\n<\/p>\n

(5) Government provides infrastructural support for construction of court buildings and residential accommodation for judicial officers which go a long way in justice administration including criminal justice administration.\n<\/p>\n

(6) Government has initiated a scheme for application of Information and Communication Technology in the courts that would facilitate faster justice delivery including faster trials in criminal cases.\n<\/p>\n

In addition, Government has, with a view to ensuring speedy disposal of cases, made appropriate changes in the Code of Criminal Procedure through Code of Criminal Procedure (Amendment) Act, 2005. Separately, the Government has introduced the concept of ‘plea bargaining’ in the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2005.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0 <\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: Except that, there is no reference about the pending cases.\n<\/p>\n

SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ<\/a>: I will give the details.\n<\/p>\n

SHRI G. KARUNAKARA REDDY <\/a>: Sir, according to the information available, as on 30th June 2005, there are 27,87,979 Civil cases and 6,36,539 Criminal cases pending in various High Courts in the country.\u00a0 The number of pending Civil and Criminal cases in various Subordinate courts are running in crores, that is, nearly about 2.5 crore.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But, after establishment of Fast Track Courts, there is a very good disposal of cases throughout the country as the hon. Minister has referred to in his reply.\u00a0 But unfortunately, the vacancies in the Fast Track Courts are also not filled up timely.\u00a0 For example, the disposal of motor accident cases takes nearly four to six years, but I am given to understand that these cases are to be disposed of within six months.\u00a0 This type of delay causes great inconvenience to the victims and kins of victims in the accidents.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 There is a rule that criminal cases should also be disposed of within six months from the date of charge-sheet, but in reality, this is running in years and it is not done so far.\u00a0 I would like to mention the famous proverb here: \u201cJustice delayed is justice denied.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sir, in toto, these delays are caused, among other reasons, mainly due to shortage of judges in various courts.\u00a0 According to my knowledge, in Europe, the ratio of judges is according to the population.\u00a0 Whereas in India, the ratio of judges with the population of India is very low, like one judge for lakhs of people whereas in Europe, one judge for some thousands of people.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Statesman, published on 14th February 2006, states: \u201c\u2018Empty Benches \u2013 Judiciary needs full financial autonomy\u2019.\u00a0 The shortage of judges in law courts at all levels is the main cause for delay in disposal of cases and the huge arrears in proportion to its population, India has the lowest number of judges among the major democracies of the world.\u00a0 In its report of 1987 on Manpower planning, the Law Commission placed the judge population ratio at 10.05 judges per million people as against 50.09 in the United Kingdom, 57.07 in Australia, 75.02 in Canada and 107 in the United States.\u00a0 Against the requirement, in India in the lower courts, of 75,000 judicial officers, the sanctioned strength of judges remains just 13,000.\u00a0 Out of this, 1,871 courts are vacant and only 12,780 incumbents are working across the country.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This causes delay in disposing of cases in various courts which creates lots of inconvenience like expenditure, time, etc. to the people and the people are suffering like anything with this delay in disposal of cases.\u00a0 If the vacancies of judges are filled in time, I think, there will be no delay in disposing of cases in various courts.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

Sir, the Government should come forward seriously to see that these judiciary vacancies are filled in various courts in the country on war-footing basis.[r12]\u00a0I also request the Union Government to create more number of posts of judges in Supreme Court and High Courts in the country and I also demand that ad hoc judges should also be appointed especially in Supreme Court for speedy disposal of cases.\u00a0\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keeping in view of the facts above, I would like to know from the Minister whether the Union Government has taken any serious view on this matter.\u00a0 If so, what are the steps taken or being taken by the Union Government to fill up the vacancies of judges in various Courts in the country immediately?\u00a0 By what time these vacancies are likely to be filled up?\u00a0 Whether the Government is considering to create more posts of judges in various Courts as per the population like in Europe?\u00a0 If so, by what time final decision in this regard is likely to be taken?\n<\/p>\n

SHRI H.R.BHARDWAJ<\/a>: Sir, I am very grateful to you and the hon. Members, who have drawn attention of the Government on this very important issue. I am reminded of the first Resolution brought by your esteemed father, Shri N.C. Chatterjee during Nehru\u2019s time, for giving a speedy and inexpensive justice to the country.\u00a0 Drawing inspiration from that Resolution, Nehru intervened in the debate and assured the establishment of the first Law Commission in the country, and since then a lot of efforts have been made.\u00a0 I am proud to say that\u00a0 this country has a wide network of courts in the country at all levels; and institution of cases, year after year, is on the increase.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sir, firstly, I would like to give a brief\u00a0 account of the pendency of cases in the various courts because the hon. Members wanted it.\u00a0 Then, I\u00a0 would come to the responsibilities of various stakeholders in this.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 With regard to the Judges, I would like to first make it very clear, and I need not quote the Constitution, that\u00a0 there are two kinds of courts in the country —\u00a0 the superior courts, namely, the Supreme Court and the High Courts; and then the subordinate courts. The Supreme Court of India and the High Court of Delhi come in the administrative control of the Central Government and the Union Territory.\u00a0 Rest of the courts\u00a0 — High Courts as well as the subordinate courts — have to be funded by the States.\u00a0 But what has happened is that over the years, adequate finances have not been provided to the justice administration, namely, the funds required for increasing the judges ratio.\u00a0 And, we are aware that the Judiciary has been asking for this ratio. But the State Governments have not yet agreed to provide those funding\u2026 (Interruptions)\n<\/p>\n

SHRI TARIT BARAN TOPDAR <\/a>(BARRACKPORE<\/a>): You offer subsidy\u2026 (Interruptions)\n<\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: Hon. Member, this is a very important matter; you should not interrupt him.\n<\/p>\n

Hon. Minister, you please carry on.\n<\/p>\n

SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ<\/a>:\u00a0 Sir,\u00a0 about the pendency, in the High Courts, the number of pendency is 42 lakhs.\u00a0 In the Supreme Court, it is about 38,000 cases pending.\u00a0 In the subordinate courts, the pendency is more; it is about 2.5 crore.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sir, if you go into it, most of the cases, which are pending in the subordinate courts, are located in various States.\u00a0 The major pendency of these 2.5 crore cases\u00a0 is in the major States only.\u00a0 I would briefly touch upon it.\u00a0 Andhra Pradesh has got about nine lakh cases pending; Bihar has got more than 12 lakh cases pending;\u00a0 Gujarat has got more than 39 lakh cases pending; Karnataka has got more than 10 lakh cases pending; Maharashtra has got more than 40 lakh cases\u00a0 pending; Orissa has got more than nine lakh cases pending; Rajasthan has got about 10 lakh cases pending; Uttar Pradesh has got about 42 lakh cases pending; West Bengal has got about 19 lakh cases pending; Punjab has got about five lakh cases pending; and Haryana has got about five lakh cases pending in the subordinate courts.\u00a0 So, these cases are spread out in the country.\u00a0 So, this comes to about 2.5 crore cases pending in various States.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sir, you will ask me<\/a>: \u201cWhat have you done to reduce this pendency?\u201d\u00a0 I requested the hon. Prime Minister to convene a joint meeting of the Chief Ministers, Chief Justice of India and the Chief Justices of various High Courts to find a solution as to what should be done.\u00a0 I would simply quote from the Resolution that all the States agreed to the Resolution for financing the strength of the subordinate courts and the High Courts.\u00a0 All the parties expressed the concern on huge pendency in the subordinate courts and stressed the need to find ways and means.\u00a0 This is part of the Resolution. [r15]\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So, thereafter, what the NDA Government provided was Rs.500 crore from the Finance Commission. This Government extended that allocation in the Budget for continuing the assistance in the Session Courts. Now, the session courts have been eased of the pendency by providing financial assistance. The State Governments have been approached by me time and again. It is not that I have not approached them. I asked them to improve the strength of the judges. Frankly, they said they\u00a0 have no money. This is where we are struck up. I would need the help of this august House, cutting across the Party lines, to give strength to this issue so that the States as well as the Centre can sit together and find ways and means to get rid of this pendency. It is not beyond our capacity to finish the arrears.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Our courts have examined the trend of disposal of cases. A High Court judge decides about 2,300 cases every year. A single judge decides within a year 2,300 cases. That is a good ratio. In Uttar Pradesh, it is much more but yet the pendency is more because it is a vast State where the pendency and institution are there. But institution is more than the disposal. Disposal continues at the same rate. There is no decline in disposal of cases. As much as the cases are instituted, they are disposed. The pendency is not being wiped out because we are not adding to the strength of the judges. So, this is where the hon. Members should help so that the States should come forward to give more funds for the justice administration.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 After all, there is a Law Minister in every State. I am prepared to share my responsibility with your help and grapple with this. We have demonstrated that we are willing to help. We are granting about Rs.1,000 crore for updating the judicial infrastructure during these three years and we are giving free facility of computerization to the States. We have provided Rs.500 crore again for fast track courts. But no facilities and financial support are forthcoming from the States. You cannot blame me for all this. Therefore, I want this House to emphasis that let all the concerned do their work in this direction so that the pendency in the trial courts to the tune of two crores are wiped out. Some States have been very forthcoming. We have done a lot of works in West Bengal. They have brought conciliation, ADR to wipe out the arrears. Some other States are also doing the same. Most of the cases, which are pending, are petty cases in criminal courts.\n<\/p>\n

SHRI TARIT BARAN TOPDAR <\/a>: Some financial help is required.\n<\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: Mr. Minister, you carry on <\/p>\n

SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ<\/a>: I want to clarify this that wherever the problem lies, if I had the powers to give you the finance, I would have readily agreed. But you know my constraints. Within my own Budget, I can provide you the money. \u2026 (Interruptions)\n<\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: Please do not take notice of any interruption. Otherwise, interruptions will go on mounting.\n<\/p>\n

SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ<\/a>: Sir, now you will ask me about my job. Regarding the vacancy position, I inherited 350 vacancies in the High Courts. I have wiped out 271 out of them. Within these two years, I am going to zero in on the vacancy position in all the High Courts. This is the time for that.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I have reviewed the strength of the High Courts, and I am adding more judges in the High Courts. But, of course, you know I will have to get the concurrence of the States because it is they who would have to agree and most of the States have already been approached that they should add more judges. For instance, the State of Uttar Pradesh will require 50 more judges. The State Government may or may not agree to finance this. Once they agree, they will be immediately appointed. Some States have done very well. Uttar Pradesh has disposed of more cases. As a matter of fact, their disposal rate is very good but yet their institution of cases is more.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In the Supreme Court, there were four vacancies. I have already received three proposals. So, these recommendations have to come there. The litigation of High Courts and Supreme Court is being co-ordinated very well but the problem is in the subordinate courts where there are petty cases under section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. There are 15000 cases of one type. They can be disposed of by just one order if they just relax the norms. So, all these innovations we will have to do. But the main problem is, we will have to again call the Chief Ministers, Law Ministers of the States, Registrars and Law Secretaries to discuss that they should provide more funds and they should provide it from their side[MSOffice16]\u00a0.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I have already approached the Union Government to give me more facilities in the magisterial courts. \u00a0As a matter of fact, I have requested that this financial assistance which is being given for fast track courts in the Sessions courts, should also be extended to the Magistrates\u2019 Courts. Recently, I have examined it. The real problem lies in the village side. As you introduced the West Bengal Conciliation Mechanism, all States should use this ADR system so that small cases can be disposed of at the block level. Thereafter, we have requested again to set up Grameen Nyayalayas for the villages. Sir, I have already worked on. another Bill of the Grameen Nyayalayas where the judges will go to the doorsteps of the poor people and resolve their disputes at the threshold. If this scheme is implemented, it will be better. I have written to the States. Some States have co-operated also. There also, the Centre will be willing to help the States to establish these Grameen Nyayalayas. I need only 7,000 judges to go to the block level and dispose of these cases. This revolution is possible.\n<\/p>\n

We are doing so much in other matters, but justice administration is our least priority everywhere. I am fighting every inch of this ground for the benefit of the States, but you kindly give me strength within your respective States so that we get more money, more judges\u2019 strength. I have no dispute with Shri Reddy who has initiated this debate. All the points which he has mentioned are valid points. The judges\u2019 ratio in India is very poor. We can increase it. You will remember that when the Prime Minister, Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee was there, the Chief Justice of India and the Prime Minister clashed on the stage about allocation of money for justice administration.\n<\/p>\n

You cannot simply blame me. This is a matter which deserves utmost attention at all levels. All the stakeholders must come forward. Sir, I am very grateful to you. I am doing my best to introduce ADR, plea-bargaining, Grameen Nyayalayas, but we must jointly meet it. There is no partisanship into it. No single Law Minister of this country can do it for the whole country. We will have to co-operate and we will have to sit together as we do in National Development Council or National Integration Council. This is an issue where we will have to jointly fight the arrears so that we have the first-rate system in the country and the people of the country live freely.\n<\/p>\n

Sir, I have worked on my brief very well. Within the Supreme Court, I have already worked on increasing the strength of judges. Every three years, we review it with the Chief Justice of India. We will appoint about 100 more judges within this year and increasing the strength, but I will have to take the permission of Chief Ministers of the States because unless they agree, I cannot sanction this. Similarly, the vacancies which are still pending in the States, have to be filled by the High Court and the respective State Governments in the subordinate Judiciary, and they should agree to more judges\u2019 strength. I have written to them and I will right to them again.\n<\/p>\n

Possibly, I will call another meeting of Chief Ministers, Chief Justices and Chief Justice of India to see how we can find mutually a system where money is provided. My difficulty is that when I ask for more money for States to be given in the matter of subordinate Judiciary, the constitutional hitch comes between. You know very well, Sir, that this funding of the subordinate courts is not within my domain. So, I am very grateful to the hon. Members who have raised this issue. I promise, Sir, that I will push this issue again with the stakeholders and authorities which are involved, and the Central Government will be definitely willing to increase the strength of judges in the Supreme Court and the High Courts.\n<\/p>\n

\u2026 (Interruptions)\n<\/p>\n

SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ<\/a>: Sir, I am very sorry that such a matter is being laughed at.\n<\/p>\n

You just listen. Hon. Speaker has raised an issue and I have to reply to it. Please give me one minute.[s17]\u00a0 <\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: Now, you can understand the agony of the Speaker also.\n<\/p>\n

SHRI H.R. BHARDWAJ <\/a>: Yes. I am very much concerned, and I share your agony. I raised this issue. This issue was raised to the Chief Justice of India (CJI) directly by the highest quarters. This year, the Supreme Court (SC) held regular sittings during the vacations.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In Gujarat, an initiative has been taken by holding evening shifts. There are other States that are prepared to follow it. All States will have to do it. I recently went to Karnataka, and they have sat on Saturday. They have also said that they will sit on one more day in the week. Therefore, this initiative is being taken, but the Executive must share its responsibility by providing them funds for it, so that it is up-to-date. One cannot do it without money, and the required strength of the judges.\n<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In England, they provided recorders and other things for two years, and disposed of their arrears. We will have to follow this. Therefore, I seek cooperation from various States that they should also follow it. I am in continuous dialogue with them on those traditions — which the English left here — that you go on furlough, and have more vacancies. They are willing to reduce their vacancies, and increase the working days.\n<\/p>\n

MR. SPEAKER: Thank you.\n<\/p>\n
