DANG: The Tulsipur High Court has disposed of 1,243 cases out of the cases filed in the court in the fiscal year 2081/82.

According to Madhusudan Panthi, Information Officer of the High Court, out of a total of 1,457 cases, including 1,043 registered in the court during the year and 414 transferred from the previous fiscal year, 1,243 cases have been disposed of. Currently, 214 cases are pending.

During the period, 85.31 percent of the total number of cases have been resolved, which is 42 percent more than the target. Information Officer Panthi informed that the estimated target is to resolve 871 cases in the last fiscal year.

“All the cases that have been pending in the court for more than a year have been decided. Of the remaining cases, 45 are pending for more than six months and 169 are pending within six months,” he said in an interaction organized on Wednesday.

The annual progress report shows that the number of cases registered and disposed of is the highest in the court’s history in a decade. According to the available data, 565 out of 949 cases, or 59.53 percent, were decided in the fiscal year 2072/73, 554 out of 931 cases, or 59.50 percent, in the fiscal year 2073/74, and 605 out of 789, or 67.67 percent, cases were decided in the fiscal year 2074/75.

Similarly, in the fiscal year 2075/76, 606 out of 801 cases, or 75.65 percent, were decided, in the fiscal year 2076/77, 407 out of 580 cases, or 70.17 percent, in the fiscal year 2076/77, 519 out of 782, or 66.36 percent, were decided.

Chief Justice of the High Court Rajeshwor Tiwari said that the highest number of cases have been registered and decided in a decade. “According to the five-year strategic plan of the judiciary, the case management system was to be divided into three categories – simple, general and special.

Since there is a provision to complete the case within six months, one year and 18 months, the work has been carried out accordingly. By working in this way, the number of cases that have exceeded one year has come down to zero. 45 cases that have exceeded six months and 169 cases within six months are pending,” he said.
