Gram Nyayalayas Scheme to be implementedin a Mission Mode through National Mission for Justice Delivery and Legal Reforms<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

DELHI : 14 JUL 2021<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has approved continuation\u00a0of the Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) for Development of Infrastructure Facilities for Judiciary\u00a0for further five years from 01.04.2021 to 31.03.2026 at a total cost of Rs.9000 crore, out of which Central share will be Rs.5357 crore including Rs.50 crore for the Gram Nyayalayas Scheme and their implementationin a Mission Mode through National Mission for Justice Delivery and Legal Reforms.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Several courts are still functioning in rented premises with insufficient space and some in a dilapidated condition without basic amenities.\u00a0 Lack of residential accommodation to all the judicial officers also adversely affects their working and performance. The present Government has remained sensitive to the needs of providing well equipped judicial infrastructure to subordinate judiciary to facilitate administration of justice in a manner that allows easy access and timely delivery of justice to all.\u00a0 Adequacy of judicial infrastructure is critical for reduction of pendency and backlog of cases in Courts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This proposal will help in\u00a0construction of 3800 court halls and 4000 residential units(both new and ongoing projects) for judicial officers of District and Subordinate Courts, 1450 lawyer halls, 1450 toilets complexes and 3800 digital computer rooms.\u00a0This will help in improving the functioning and performance of the Judiciary in the country and will be a new step towards building better courts for a new India.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Cabinet also approved the decision to support the Gram Nyayalayas by proving\u00a0recurringand\u00a0non-recurring grants for a period of 5 years with a total outlay of Rs 50 crores. However,\u00a0funds will be released to the states only after the notified Gram Nyayalayas are operationalised and Nyayadhikaris have been appointed and reported on the Gram Nyayalaya portal of Department of Justice. A review will be undertaken after one year to assess whether\u00a0Gram Nyayalaya Scheme has successfully achieved its objective of providing speedy and affordable justice to the rural marginalized.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ACentrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) for Development of Infrastructure Facilities for Judiciary has been in operation since 1993-94.\u00a0 Adequacy of judicial infrastructure is critical for reduction of pendency and backlog of cases in Courts. Though the primary responsibility of infrastructure development for the subordinate judiciary rests with the State Governments, the Central Government through this CSS augments the resources of the State Governments for construction of court buildings and residential quarters for Judicial Officers (JO) in all the States \/ UTs. The present proposal provides for additional activities like\u00a0construction of\u00a0lawyer halls, toilets complexes and digital computer rooms. This will add to the convenience of lawyers and litigants besides reducing digital divide.<\/p>\n

Central Government also decided to bear 50% of the recurring expenses of these courts subject to a ceiling of Rs. 3.2 lakhs per court per annum during the first three (3) years of their operations. 13 states have implemented this scheme by notifying 455Gram Nyayalayas out of which 226 are functional.
