It is high time that delivery of justice becomes transparent and people friendly.
My bike was stolen and was recovered by the Police. I had to spend nine days with advocate, court and police officials altogether to get the bike released. Though everybody agreed that the bike was mine. Even then it took nine painful days. In such cases, when ownership is not disputed, the Police should be authorised and instructed to handover the bike to its true owner immediately after taking surety/bond.?

Similarly my one friend N.K.Mehta was government witness in a criminal case. He did not receive any summons or bailable warrant to give witness in the court. One fine morning an ASI of Bihar Police called on him with a non bailable warrant. You may just guess how a common man will feel in such situation. How anyone will dare to volunteer himself to help the law enforcing machinery?
A broad day light robbery was committed in one of bank's branches at Motihari. All the staff members present at that time were made government witnesses. All had the same oral complaints that they did not receive any summons or bailable warrant . The Police informed them that nonbailable warrants against them had been issued by the court. However since this issue involved many staff members so the Police was lenient, they just advised them to give witness in the court and get their non bailable warrants withdrawn.
In a false & fabricated case, once a Magistrate in Gujrat issued warrants against the then honourable Chief Justice of India, Justice V.N.Khare and the then honourable President Mr. A.P.J.Abdul Kalam.
Should there not be a greivance redressal system in the courts also to fix respnsibility on delinquent employees and punish them?

Once The honourable Mr Justice P.Sathasivam, the Chief Justice of India expressed concern over the steady decline of reputation of Judiciary and legal profession while addressing Judges, Advocates and other eminent persons in Chennai.
Now it is high time that something concrete is done to address the issue.
