Chief Justice (CJ) Surendra Kumar Sinha has ordered quick disposal of the cases filed before 2010 in the High Court Division of the Supreme Court. Md Sabbir Faiz, Additional Registrar (Administration and Justice) of High Court, disclosed this information to the journalists on Sunday.
He said, no one is taking initiative to hear old cases for various reasons. Sometimes plaintiffs and defendants lose their interest to handle cases, for which backlog has been created in the High Court. That is why the Chief Justice ordered quick disposal of the cases filed before 2010, said Sabbir Faiz.
Accordingly, a number of cases filed before 2010 were recorded on Sunday in the various benches’ cause lists. The rest of the cases will be in cause list gradually, said the additional registrar.
