There was an article published in your newspaper yesterday which talked about how our justice system is coming apart at its seams. It pointed out that we have currently 3.3 Crore cases pending in various courts across India ( with almost 1 cr of them over 5 years old) and how that number is set to climb to 15 Cr in next couple of decades. It also made a mention of the open vacancies for judges at various levels and how that is contributing to this massive pendency pile up. Finally it concluded by implying that justice in India can be bought but cannot be served.
