Chief Justice Suryakant dropped a game-changing announcement for Haryana’s judicial landscape: a dedicated Sessions Division is coming to Hansi. This strategic decision addresses longstanding demands from the legal fraternity and the public for better court access in the Hisar region.
Speaking at an official event, the CJ highlighted how the new division would streamline judicial processes. ‘Hansi’s establishment as a Sessions Division is a step towards equitable justice distribution,’ he remarked. The area, known for its agricultural prominence and dense population, currently relies on overburdened courts in Hisar, leading to prolonged trials and logistical nightmares for locals.
The Sessions Division will handle everything from serious criminal cases to civil disputes, equipped with modern facilities and trained personnel. This isn’t just about building courts; it’s about transforming lives by cutting down commute times—often hours on congested roads—and minimizing case backlogs.
Stakeholders, including advocates and politicians, have praised the move. ‘Finally, justice won’t be a journey,’ said a senior lawyer from Hansi Bar Association. Plans include state-of-the-art courtrooms, e-filing systems, and video conferencing for remote hearings, all set to roll out progressively.
This announcement underscores the judiciary’s adaptability in a changing India. With rising litigation due to economic growth, decentralizing courts like this is essential. Haryana’s government has pledged full support, including land and funding. As construction kicks off, Hansi is poised to become a judicial hub, promising efficiency and fairness for generations.
