(c): Equality of justice as enshrined under Article 14 of the Constitution of India is followed in letter and spirit. The Government is taking various initiatives to improve justice delivery system in the country. These are as under: 1. The Government has `in principle` approved setting up of National Mission for Justice Delivery and Legal Reforms. The National Mission would help implementing the two major goals of the Vision Document 2009, viz: (i) increasing access by reducing delays and arrears in the system (ii) enhancing accountability at all levels through structural changes and setting performance standards and facilitating enhancement of capacities for achieving such performance standards. 2. With the objective of improving justice delivery, Thirteenth Finance Commission has recommended a grant of Rs. 5000 crore to be utilized over a period of five years up to 2010- 2015. This grant is aimed at providing support to improve judicial outcomes, and is allocated for the initiatives such as (i) Increasing the number of court working hours using the existing infrastructure by holding morning / evening / shift courts; (ii) Enhancing support to Lok Adalats to reduce the pressure on regular courts; (iii) Providing additional funds to State Legal Services Authorities to enable them to enhance legal aid to the marginalized and empower them to access justice; (iv) Promoting the Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism to resolve part of the disputes outside the court system;(v) Enhancing capacity of judicial officers and public prosecutors through training programmes; (vi) Supporting creation or strengthening of a judicial academy in each State to facilitate such training; (vii) Creation of the post of Court Managers in every judicial district and High Courts to assist the judiciary in their administrative functions and (viii) Maintenance of heritage court buildings. 3. The Government is implementing a central sector scheme for computerization of the District and Subordinate Courts (e-Courts project) in the country and for upgradation of the ICT infrastructure of the Supreme Court and the High Courts, at a cost of Rs. 935 crore for the first phase which will connect 14,229 courts in the country including video conferencing facilities. In the subsequent phase, digitization, library management, e-filing and establishment of data warehouse are expected to take place. The Project output would be beneficial to both improving court process and rendering citizen centric services. Automation of case flow would cover case scrutiny, registration, court proceedings and electronic monitoring of ail court-wise case pendency and performance assessment of Judges. In terms of citizen centric services, online availability of case status, copies of orders and judgments, cause list and eventually e- filing of cases will be available. This project will also achieve one of the important goals of the Vision Document 2009, namely, the creation of National Arrears Grid, with the last mile connectivity up to Taluqa courts. The complete coverage of the 14,249 courts in terms of hardware and software will be achieved by March 2014 and the largest number of courts (12,000) will be covered by March 2012. Re-engineering of the process in the courts is the ultimate aim for speeding justice delivery and this activity is also to start this year. 4. Enactment of the Gram Nyayalayas Act, 2008 which provides for establishment of Gram Nyayalayas to improve access to justice to common man. Under the scheme, the Government provides non recurring grant for creation of infrastructure and also recurring grant on annual basis. Rs. 20.92 crore have been provided to the States so far under this scheme. 5. A Centrally Sponsored Scheme for development of infrastructure facilities for the judiciary is being implemented since 1993-94 under which central assistance for construction of court buildings and residential quarters for judicial officers is released to augment the resources of the State Governments. The central grant is released with a rider that the State Governments would contribute at least the matching share. An amount of Rs. 412 crore has been released to the State Governments during the last three years. Central Grant for construction of High Court buildings is considered by the Planning Commission on 30:70 basisunder Additional Central Assistance scheme. 6. For legal empowerment of the marginalized people in India an externally aided project `Access to Justice for Marginalized People in India` is being implemented, in the selected 07 States, with the support of UNDP. 8/11/2015 tmp300.htm LOK SABHA ANNEXURE STARRED QUESTION NO. 59 DATED 24­02­2011 Supreme Court of India H ome Causelists Case Status Daily Orders Judgements Indian Courts Calender MONTHLY PENDING CASES SUPREME COURT OF INDIA THE MONTHLY STATEMENT OF PENDING CASES FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY, 2011 Pending from Registered Disposed of Disposed of Pending the Previous during the during the Month month month matters at the pertaining to end of Previous the months, but month updated this month D A+B­ A B C (C+D) Admission 32565 8230 7977 39 32779 Matters Regular 21997 895 498 22386 Hearing Matters Total 54562 9125 47 55165 8475 • Out of the 55165 pending matters .as on 31/01/2011, if connected matters are excluded, the pendency is only 32694 matters as on 31/01/2011. • Out of the 55165 pending matters as on 31/01/2011, 19726 matters are upto one year old and thus arrears (i.e. cases pending more than a year) are only of 35439 matters as on 31/01/2011.

  • Securing the Independence of the Judiciary-The Indian Experience
    SECURING THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE JUDICIARY-THE INDIAN EXPERIENCE M. P. Singh* We have provided in the Constitution for a judiciary which will be independent. It is difficult to suggest anything more to make the Supreme Court and the High Courts independent of the influence of the executive. There is an attempt made in the Constitutionto make even the lowerjudiciary independent of any outside or extraneous influence.' There can be no difference of opinion in the House that ourjudiciary must both be independent of the executive and must also be competent in itself And the question is how these two objects could be secured.' I. INTRODUCTION An independent judiciary is necessary for a free society and a constitutional democracy. It ensures the rule of law and realization of human rights and also the prosperity and stability of a society.3 The independence of the judiciary is normally assured through the constitution but it may also be assured through legislation, conventions, and other suitable norms and practices. Following the Constitution of the United States, almost all constitutions lay down at least the foundations, if not the entire edifices, of an * Professor of Law, University of Delhi, India.

  • To Whom Does Temple Wealth Belong? a Historical Essay on Landed Property in Travancore K
    RESEARCH ARTICLE To Whom Does Temple Wealth Belong? A Historical Essay on Landed Property in Travancore K. N. Ganesh* Abstract: The enormous wealth stored in the Sree Padmanabha Swamy temple of Thiruvananthapuram, the component items of which were classified and enumerated under the direction of the Supreme Court of India in June 2011, sparked off a major debate on the nature of temple wealth, and on the rights of the temple, the royal family that controlled the temple, and the people as a whole. The issues that have figured in the current controversy can be addressed only by means of study of the history of the growth of temples and their wealth. The Padmanabha temple, where the present hoard has been discovered, is a case in point. In the medieval context, the transformation of landed social wealth into temple wealth impelled the emergence of the temple as a source of social power, one that even kings were forced to recognise. Ultimately, whether described as divine wealth or social wealth, this wealth belongs to the people as the proceeds of their labour. The millions hoarded in the Padmanabha temple are the historical legacy of the millions who have tilled the soil and laboured on the earth for at least a millennium, and shall go back to them and their inheritors. Keywords: Sree Padmanabha Swamy temple, history of Travancore, agrarian history of Kerala, Venad kingdom, temple hoard. The enormous wealth stored in the Sree Padmanabha Swamy temple of Thiruvananthapuram,1 the component items of which were classified and enumerated under the direction of the Supreme Court of India in June 2011, sparked off a major debate on the nature of temple wealth and on the rights of the temple, the royal family that controls the temple, and the people as a whole.
