Punjab State Scheduled Castes Commission has opened a separate Court Room to ensure faster hearings, timely disposal of cases and overall efficiency in the functioning of the Commission. This initiative is said to be the first of its kind in the country under any State Scheduled Castes Commission.
Equipped with modern facilities, an Online Court System would also be introduced soon to enable complainants to appear virtually, saving time, travel, and expenses for the public. Commission Chairman, Jasvir Singh Garhi, said that the new Courtroom will play a crucial role in ensuring the timely delivery of justice. He said this initiative is vital for protecting the rights and dignity of the Scheduled Caste community and upholding the principles of equality.
