From the Paper:

The problem of delay in the disposal of cases pending in law courts is not a recent phenomenon. It has been with us and has us since a long time. A number of Commissions and Committees have dealt with the problem and given their reports. Although the recommendations, when implemented, have had some effect, the problem has persisted; and of late, it has assumed gigantic proportions. This has subjected our judicial system, as it must, to severe strain. It has also shaken the confidence of the people in the capacity and capability of the courts to redress their grievances and grant adequate and timely relief.
