It is said that JUSTICE DELAYED MEANS JUSTICE DENIED.
The wheels of justice, the saying goes, grind slowly but grind exceedingly fine. In the Indian context, it would be more true to say that they grind so exceedingly slowly that there can be nothing fine about the outcome.... [TOI report]
According to the report appeared in Times of India, 45 lakh cases were pending in 24 High Courts as in June, 2014. It is not known how many cases are pending in various benches of CAT.
CAT was created as a mechanism to ensure speedy re-dressal of grievances of employees and pensioners in service matter. But, the experience is other way round. Many of the Courts are over loaded. 30-35% posts of judges are lying vacant for years together.
Only when justice is denied people go to Court. Going to the Court itself is the first punishment. Hence, everybody wants to avoid it.
If the court fails to give them the remedy in time, where shall the people go?
