NEW DELHI, Sept 7: There are nearly 62 thousand cases pending in various high courts,<\/a> which are more than 30 years old, including three awaiting disposal since 1952.
\nAccording to official data, there are four cases pending since 1954 and nine since 1955 in high courts.Out of the three cases pending since 1952, two are in the Calcutta High Court and one in the Madras High Court.
\nAddressing the national conference of district judiciary here earlier this week, President Droupadi Murmu had called for a change in the \u201cculture of adjournments\u2019 in the judiciary.
\nShe said long-standing pendency and backlog of cases is a big challenge before the judiciary.
\n\u201cAll stakeholders have to find a solution by giving priority to this problem,\u201d she said.
\nAs many as 58.59 lakh cases, including 42.64 lakh of civil nature and 15.94 lakh of criminal nature, are pending across high courts.
\nAccording to the National Judicial Data Grid (NJDG), nearly 2.45 lakh cases are pending in high courts which are 20 to 30 years old.
\nAddressing the same event, Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal had called for breaking the perception that Indian courts follow the \u201ctareekh pe tareekh culture\u201d.
\nHe said the law ministry has analysed that there were cases pending since five, 10, 15, 20 and 30 years.
\nHe said an analysis of pending cases mentioned on the NJDG shows that parties involved in litigation are either not present or not interested in taking the case forward. He said 25 to 30 per cent of such cases can be closed in one go.
\nIn this regard, some high courts have taken effective steps.
\nReferring to the concepts of \u2018ageing analysis\u2019 and \u2018clubbing of similar cases\u2019, he said these have helped settle pending cases in a time-bound manner.
\nMore than five crore cases are pending in various courts, including district courts, high courts and the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n
