The Jammu and Kashmir administration approved four new courts of Additional District & Sessions Judges at district headquarters in four districts.
The new courts will be in four districts one each in Samba, Bandipora, Ganderbal and Poonch.
The decision in this regard was taken in the Administrative Council (AC) meeting chaired by Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, an official spokesperson said.
The AC, he said, also approved creation of 40 new posts of different categories (10 each) at the new court complexes in the 4 selected districts having a financial implication of Rs. 258.245 lacs (salary) and Rs 21.657 lacs (NPS) per financial year.
“The gradual increase in the population of Jammu and Kashmir has substantially enhanced the judicial work load which has necessitated the opening of new court complexes to cater to the increased public demand,” the official spokesperson said.
