An interview with Ramakant Goswami on those pending cases

Delhi Law Minister Ramakant Goswami got the portfolio in the last ministerial reshuffle. Keeping in view the huge pendency of court cases in district courts, the process of creation of 50 additional posts of Delhi Higher Judicial Service and 100 posts of Delhi Judicial Service along with ancillary staff has been initiated. Land has also been blocked by the Delhi Development Authority for construction of South or South-East District Courts at Maidan Garhi and on Chhatarpur Bhati Mines Road in Satbari village. The construction of three more family court complexes at Dheerpur, Janakpuri and Vishwas Nagar is nearing completion and these courts are likely to be functional soon. The Delhi Government has plans to set up separate court rooms in each court complex to provide a conducive environment to child victims and child witness in court cases.
