The Chief Justice of India (CJI) JS Khehar said when he took up the designation, he saw a “marathon of arrears” in courts. The CJI was speaking at the closing ceremony of the celebrations marking 150 years of the Allahabad High Court on Sunday. In the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh governor Ram Naik and chief minister Yogi Adityanath along with other dignitaries, the CJI raised the issue of having less than required strength of judges and pendency of cases in courts including the Supreme Court. The CJI further mentioned the steps he was taking to reduce the burden on the judiciary.
The CJI while speaking on the occasion, said the success of any person or institution depends on how he, she or it deals with the adequacy. He shared his childhood memories to explain this and said how in school he understood that working towards a goal is the only need to accomplish any task. In the same way, when he became the CJI, he saw the massive pendency of cases. Suggesting steps to overcome it, he asked the judges to consider sitting in courts for five days during a vacation to clear at least 10 cases each day and bring down the numbers. “This way thousands of small matters like can be settled and arrears of cases brought down,” said Khehar referring to a system of court management under which pendency of cases in Malaysia had been brought down to one-fifth. The CJI said he proposes to have three constitution benches during this summer vacation to help reduce the arrears in the apex court.
