The Delhi High Court Bar Association has opposed raising District Courts’ pecuniary jurisdiction from Rs 2 crore to Rs 20 crore, warning it may disrupt judicial efficiency, institutional balance, and effective administration of justice in Delhi city-wide legal system.
In a tragic incident at Delhi’s Saket District Court, undertrial prisoner Aman was killed by two fellow inmates during a scuffle. The attackers targeted Aman due to a previous enmity stemming from a 2024 stabbing incident. The Bar Association criticized court security, highlighting rising violence in the complex.
