JAMMU, May 1: In an unprecedented move aimed at reducing the pendency of the cases in the High Court and also in view of shortage of judges, the Acting Chief Justice Virender Singh has decided not to avail transit days leave on account of Annual Darbar Move of High Court and issued directions to Registry to list cases before him in the Jammu Wing of the High Court.
The decision of the Acting Chief Justice has been welcomed by the advocates as well as litigants.
It is worthwhile to mention here that Acting Chief Justice was entitled to transit days leave from April 30 to opening of the Darbar Move at Srinagar but keeping in view the shortage of judges and huge pendency, the Acting Chief Justice has decided to hold the Court so that the confidence of the people is restored in judiciary.
