Justice delayed is justice denied.

Introduction

Whenever we hear the word 'justice' the first thing that comes to our mind is courts, a lot of files, and dates over dates. We have been always told that getting justice is not an easy task. In exchange, it takes money and time and it also plays with our emotions.

Due to the delay in dispense of justice, many people have lost their faith in the judiciary.

Let me first clear some facts about Indian courts

- Today, it can take about 20 years if a case goes all the way from the subordinate court to the high court and then the apex Court.

- more than 1000 cases are pending in court for 50 years

- more than 2 lakh cases for 25 years.

- there is 90 lakh pending civil cases, amongst which 20 lakh are such where even summon has not been served yet.

- On average, a district judge has about 50-60 cases listed before him every day.

- there are 4crore pending cases in India because we have only 19 judges over 10 lakhs people.

From these facts, you have understood the real situation.

When you don't get something, when you need it the most, then it lost its actual importance. This phenomenon is also applicable to the dispense of justice. Or we can say ' justice delayed is justice denied '.

Understand with examples

1. You must have remembered the 1984 Sikh riots, recently in January 2020 Congress leader Sajjan Kumar has found guilty of criminal conspiracy in the case and sentenced to life imprisonment.

2. Jessica's murder case in which, she was shot dead at around 2.00 am on 30 April 1999 by the son of MP of Haryana. He was sentenced to life imprisonment on 20 December 2006. On 2 June 2020 Manu Sharma was released from Tihar Jail by Delhi LG on grounds of good behavior.

3. 4 men were convicted for the 2012 Nirbhaya gang-rape case and murder case, were finally hanged 7 years after the brutal crime.

4. A case of a massacre where 42 Muslims were brutally killed in Hashimapur.The trial ended in 2015 where all the accused were acquitted. life- imprisonment to 16 policemen of the UP Provincial Armed Constabulary.

These are just some cases among the thousands.

These always question the efficiency of the judicial system.

Every system has some defects and none is perfect.

voting rights to illiterate-logical or not??

India's literacy rate is 74.4% according to the 2011 census, which contains 82.14% for males and 65.46% for females. Any Indian citizen who is 18yrs old and above has the right to vote and contest the election.13 Dec 1989 was the date when the starting age was reduced to18yrs from 21yrs. There is a constitutional body in India that handles the whole election procedure from the election of Prime Minister to Sarpanch. When India became independent thousands of questions arose in the minds of constitution-makers. One major question among all these was- Should illiterate people have the right to vote? We know that voting is a very big responsibility in a democracy. After a lot of debates and arguments, the decision was taken and voting right was also given to illiterate citizens. Arguments in favor 1. By not providing them the right to vote, we are violating their right to equality. 2. An illiterate voter can distinguish between genuine promises and false promises. 3. Som

Do films create a social evil?

firstly, we should know about the social evils. Social evils : Social evils are all the elements that are contradictory to moral values. These affect not just individuals but the whole society member, which are related to each other in terms of nation or a community.

how Uttarakhand glacier burst?

Introduction: The very unfortunate news has come from the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand where a part of the Nanda Devi glacier is broken which caused the flood. Until now 15 people have lost their lives and 100+ are missing and very heavy destruction have happened to two hydropower plants. This is not the first time, this has reminded us of the disaster of 2013 and it's not the last event. In the coming time, this kind of disaster will be more frequent due to climate change. We are not very clear that what happened in Chamoli and why. But some experts think that behind this disaster there is a phenomenon of GLOF (Glacial Lake outburst flood) Let us try to understand. What is a glacier? The collection of a very huge amount of ice for a very long time in a particular area where that ice does not melt due to the climatic conditions of that area. Example mountain 🏔️ tops, Alaska and Iceland. Due to the regular deposit of ice, its weight increases continuously which leads

The number of pending cases in India’s higher judiciary and the number of vacancies in the Supreme Court and the high courts have been simultaneously increasing. There should be need for the appointment of more judges. The current vacancy status in the 25 high courts of India reveals that out of 1,079 sanctioned judges’ posts, which include both permanent as well as additional judges, 404 posts (approximately 37.44 per cent) are vacant. justice should not be delayed because if this will happen people trust on judiciary weakened which ultimately result in lost in hope and confidence. This delay in providing justice will give rise to increase in criminal activities. So, it becomes pertinent to analyse the current status of vacancy in India’s higher judiciary, in general, and high courts, in particular.
