A long-awaited dream of the people of Attappady fulfilled on Saturday when Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan inaugurated a Munsif Magistrate Court on the remote tribal hills.
Speaking on the occasion through video mode, the Chief Minister hoped that the new court would dispose of the bulk of pending cases from Attappady.
Mr. Vijayan said that multidimensional interventions were needed to strengthen judiciary, and that his government was duty-bound to ensure that. Reminding the legal fraternity that there are five crore cases pending in the courts across the country, the Chief Minister reiterated the overused adage that ‘justice delayed is justice denied’.
