justice delayed

#Justice #delayed

It is a fact that law and order in Kerala is in a pathetic state. The only establishment in which the people still have faith is the judiciary. Unfortunately, not all judiciary issues are laudable

Some cases have been pending in the High Court for around 20 years and these old pending cases are not brought to the attention of the judges by the registry of the court. The Court's observation to this effect is correct.

Most of these cases concern ordinary citizens. Court time is mostly spent on cases involving ministers and political leaders and there is no dearth for such cases. While reviewing sensational cases by the court with immediate effect, all ordinary people's cases are held in abeyance. When cases are followed by Delhi-based rish profile lawyers, cases are given extra attention inside and outside the court.

There should be a mechanism in all courts to hear cases within a limited time, because justice delayed is justice denied.
