We are asking for a very simple and small favour. When a person enters in compound of Supreme Court, or a High Court, or a District Court, he should be able to see a large board describing Citizen Charter for citizens.
It should say what minimum a litigant can accept from this Court. If possible, it should say what are the arrears in this court, how many cases are disposed off in last month, what are the procedures for getting matter listed for urgent orders, and what is the Citizen Grievances System.
At present, scene in any court is very simple. There will not be enough chairs for litigants to sit. No one will know when his case will start. Everyone is crowding the court at 10.20AM daily. When a citizen comes in court, he looks confused,pitiable and apprehensive.
This should change.
I think his faith in Judicial System will grow if he will see a Citizen Charter outside every court in India.
