Judicial Reforms...... need of the hour

i went through a article in chronicle magzine,october issue which was about the recomendations on the judicial reforms for judicial accountability. figure i got were huge..

* average life of a litigation in India is 15 yrs, which is to be brought down to 3 yrs by 2011.

* pending cases are about 2.67 crores in trial courts and 38 lakhs in HCs, which sums upto over 3 crore cases

* about 2.5 lakhs or 70 % of prisoners are undertrials, awaiting justice.... many of whom have been in jail for longer periods than they would have served had they been sentenced.

no wonder that "Justice Delayed is Justice Denied".......
