Addressing a conference organised by Centre for legislative Studies at Chandigarh, Union Minister for law and Justice DV Sadananda Gowda said that more than three crore cases are pending in the courts throughout the country. "This is because of shortage of judges and judicial officers," he said, adding that the present Government is committed to provide good governance to the citizens and providing speedy justice is part of it. He said that infrastructure development to ensure administration of justice to everyone is priority of the Government. Former MP and President of the Centre of legislative Studies, Chandigarh, Satya Pal Jain, apprised the Minister about the problems faced by the legal fraternity of the region. Earlier on Friday, the Minister interacted with the advocates of Punjab and Haryana High Court Bar Association on the completion of the 60 years of Punjab and Haryana High Court.
