"Financial Autonomy Of The Judiciary Is An Integral Part If We Want A Different Outcome From Our Judicial System": CJI NV Ramana

Live Law  

"If we want a different outcome from the judicial system, we cannot continue to work in these circumstances. I have, therefore, sent a proposal for the establishment of the National Judicial Infrastructure Authority to the Ministry of Law and Justice, and I am hoping for a positive response soon. Institutionalising the mechanism for augmenting and creating state-of-the-art judicial infrastructure is the best gift that we can think of giving to our people and our country in this 75th year of our Independence, expressed Chief Justice of India NV Ramana Ramana on Saturday. As regards the state of judicial infrastructure in this country, the CJ presented some "hard facts and figures"- the total sanctioned strength of judicial officers in the country is 24,280; the number of courts available is 20,143; 26% court complexes do not have separate ladies toilet and 16% do not have toilets even for gents. This is not the fault of any institution but it is symbolic of a deeper structural problem that has plugged judicial infrastructural development since Independence" He stated that an effective judiciary can aid in effective growth of the economy- "According to an international research published in 2018, 9% of the annual GDP is the cost which the country suffers as an impact of the failure to deliver timely justice.
