Delhi High Court has issued new practice directions to fast-track cheque bounce case disposal, following the Supreme Court’s Sanjibji Tari judgment, introducing digital summons, QR code and UPI payment options, and stricter timelines to reduce pendency across Delhi courts.
On June 9, 2025, lawyers in Delhi will boycott court due to the relocation of judges from 34 new digital courts handling cheque bounce cases to Rouse Avenue. They protest the move, arguing it complicates proceedings and is unnecessary, as court staff will remain at their original district locations, causing further confusion.
