CJI Gavai: Lawyers Blamed for Backlog, Unwilling to Work During Vacation

The Chief Justice of India, B R Gavai, is pointing out a problem.

He says that people blame the courts for not solving cases quickly.

But, the judges are working, even during their breaks!

The real issue is that lawyers don't want to work during the vacation time.

This means cases take longer to be heard.

The Supreme Court has changed its schedule to keep working during the summer break, with more judges available than before.

This should help with the case backlog.
