Supreme Court: High Courts Can't Handle All Matters

The Supreme Court said that it cannot make High Courts speed up their cases.

A person wanted the Supreme Court to make the Allahabad High Court quickly decide a case that had been going on for 13 years.

The Supreme Court explained that High Courts are not directly controlled by it.

Also, the Supreme Court said that if the High Courts have fewer judges working than they should, it will be hard to make them resolve cases quickly.

The person was told to keep asking the High Court for a decision.

The Supreme Court also noted that many applications might be needed to get a case heard.
