A landmark decision from Chief Justice Suryakant will see Hansi in Haryana elevated to Sessions Division status, enhancing the state’s judicial footprint. This proactive measure targets inefficiencies in rural court access, a persistent challenge in populous areas like Hisar.
The CJ elaborated on the rationale during a press briefing: ‘By establishing this division, we’re bridging the gap between citizens and courts.’ Hansi’s selection stems from data-driven analysis showing high case volumes and travel barriers—issues exacerbated by poor connectivity and seasonal disruptions.
The new setup will feature specialized courts for sessions, family, and commercial matters, complete with forensic support and mediation suites. Recruitment drives for judges and staff are underway, promising a robust launch.
This development resonates deeply with locals. ‘No more lost wages for court trips,’ expressed a Hansi resident. It also aligns with broader reforms like the e-Courts project, integrating AI for case management.
Haryana’s legal ecosystem stands strengthened, with potential ripple effects on law and order. As the Sessions Division takes shape, it symbolizes judicial commitment to inclusivity, setting a precedent for other regions and reaffirming faith in the system.
