Clogged courts a concern

This is called the case clearance rate (CCR)."In spite of a number of actions to expedite and improve the contract enforcement regime, economic activity is being affected by the delays and pendency across the legal landscape. Contract enforcement remains the single biggest constraint to improve our ease of doing business ranking," the survey said. It said India continued to lag on the indicator to enforce contracts, climbing only one rank to 163 from 164 in the latest report for 2018. However, the problem is not insurmountable. "A case clearance rate of 100 per cent (zero accumulation) can be achieved with the addition of merely 2,279 judges in the lower courts and 93 in high courts even without efficiency gains."The Survey said the government had already sanctioned the addition to the judiciary; and one now needs to just fill up the vacancies."Scenario analysis of efficiency gains needed to clear the backlog in five years suggest that the required productivity gains are ambitious, but achievable ... This may well be the best investment India can make," it said. DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.
