Space constraint in court rooms have been a big problem plaguing the Supreme Court of India..The space in court rooms and corridors have been woefully inadequate to accommodate the burgeoning crowd of lawyers and litigants..As a temporary measure, the Court is likely to get four bigger court rooms when it re-opens on July 3 after the summer break..A note by Supreme Court Bar Association states that the Chief Justice of India has issued instructions to the Registry to take concrete steps to tackle the problem..“On the re-opening day, we are likely to have four new courts, whose capacity would be second only to court 1. Each of these courts would have sitting capacity of about 75 (as against 35 at present) and more standing space. Two courts which have been extended by adding area of the third court would be on the side of Appu Ghar and two courts would be on the other side on a floor above where present courts are situated.”.Besides, there would be more space provided where lawyers can wait for their matters..“The consultation room on top of library 2 would be converted into waiting area for lawyers and would be part of one court being refurbished there. In lieu thereof, SCBA is going to have a better located and more spacious Consultation Room on the floor of Attorney General.”.Read the SCBA note below.
