Speaking after inaugurating the National Law Day celebrations, organised by the District Legal Services Authority, Mysuru, and the Bar Association of Mysuru, here on Wednesday, Mr Das attributed the high pendency to the large number of vacancies in various courts in the country.

Emphasising the need for more judicial personnel, Mr. Das said the number of judges and courts should also increase to ensure time-bound disposal of cases.

Yet, he said the Supreme Court disposed of 60,000 cases every year while the High Courts dispose of 18,000 cases annually. All the lower courts in the country together dispose of 1.65 crore cases every year in the country, he added.

Mr. Das urged the government to extend all possible assistance to develop infrastructure for the judicial system and facilitate speedy disposal of justice.

He said the people of the country had faith in the judiciary and stressed the need to create more awareness about the existing laws among the public.
