The total pendency of cases, both civil and criminal in the 21 High Courts as on December 31, 2007 is 37,43,060. The pendency in Madras High Court is 4,28,832, including 3,92,824 civil cases and 36,008 criminal cases. Increasing the strength of judges to 60 is expected to considerably increase the rate of disposal and reduce the pendency in the Madras High court.
Additional judges’ term extended by two years
Indian judicial & crime statistics
Huge case backlog clogs India's courts
2.59 crore cases pending in courts across the country
41 court martial cases pending
Comment: The population of India on July 2008 stands at 1160 million and nearly 30 million of its citizens (approx 3%) are fighting legal battles. Justice delayed is Justice denied. Can citizens ever dream of speedy deliverance. The Armed Forces Tribunal recently has come into vogue. Can the Defence Forces expect speedy Justice?
