The Apex Court expressed its prima facie view that the Central Government also owes a duty under Article 247 of Indian Constitution to create additional courts for effective administration of laws made by Parliament<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bench was of the opinion that the power under the said article is coupled with a duty on part of Central Government to direct establishment of additional courts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Article 247, the Parliament is bestowed with the power to give orders regarding establishment of additional courts w.r.t. to the matters enlisted under the Union List.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This prima facie view of the bench had been observed in a suo moto case taken up to formulate measures in order to expedite the trails conducted under Section 138<\/a> of Negotiable Instruments<\/a> act which deal with cheque bounce cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The apex court took suo moto cognizance as dishonour<\/a> of cheques form part of nearly 30% of the pending cases at the stage of trail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier, when the Central Government sought views of Central Government on this issue, the Additional Solicitor General submitted a note along with the alternative measures to deal with the said issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Supreme Court, however, was not in favour of incorporating the suggestions made by Union Ministry of Finance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bench passed an order and stated that it would constitute a committee comprising of the Secretaries belonging to different Ministries to study the issue. The said committee would be presided by retired judge who possesses wide knowledge regarding the trail matters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
