Unclogging the Docket: Supreme Court’s Innovative Approach to Case Pendency
The Supreme Court of India has released a groundbreaking report, Unclogging the Docket: Tackling Short, Infructuous and Old Cases, detailing a pendency project conducted by the Centre for Research and Planning (CRP) from November 2024 to May 2025. This initiative, the first to implement Differentiated Case Management in India, processed 10,000 pending cases, identified short, old, and infructuous matters, and achieved judicial resolution for around 2,000 cases. With an improved disposal rate of 104%, this project offers a scalable model for reducing judicial pendency across India.
