Delhi Law and Public Works Department Minister Atishi attended a meeting with senior officials on Wednesday, 27 December to discuss the Aam Aadmi Party government's progress in building 188 new courtrooms in the city.
Atishi emphasised the need for detailed plans and a timeline-driven approach to address the city's courtroom shortage, emphasising the urgency of the situation.
Atishi instructed officials to create a detailed timeline and checklist for the swift establishment of new courtrooms.
The construction of 188 new courtrooms is aimed at strengthening the judicial system, as judges and courts are burdened by pending litigation.
Atishi emphasised the importance of essential facilities within these new courts, prioritising the comfort and convenience of all stakeholders in the legal process.
“The Kejriwal government is firmly dedicated to providing ample courtrooms for the judicial relief of citizens. Currently, judges and courts across the country are overburdened with pending litigation, causing undue delays in the resolution of cases. The commitment to build 188 new courtrooms in Delhi aligns with the broader vision of strengthening a judicial system that can serve the citizens of Delhi efficiently and responsibly," stated Atishi.
