An inaugural discussion on Media's Relationship with the Law and Justice System was held on 26 January 2021
DAKSH invites you to a thought-provoking webinar on improving judicial efficiency through better case scheduling. This session will feature a discussion on the paper “Service Operations for Justice-on-Time: A Data-Driven Queueing Approach,” by Nitin Bakshi, Jeunghyun Kim, and Ramandeep S. Randhawa, which explores innovative ways to reduce judicial delays by up to 65%—without increasing the number of judges.
The paper, using data from the Supreme Court of India, challenges the conventional wisdom that judicial backlogs can only be solved by appointing more judges. Instead, the research highlights how strategic scheduling and capacity allocation can significantly improve efficiency. By identifying key bottlenecks and reallocating judicial resources more effectively, the study presents a practical, data-driven solution to one of India’s most pressing judicial challenges.
DAKSH is pleased to invite you to the launch of their landmark report “State of Tribunals 2025: A Baseline Report on India’s Commercial Tribunals”, part of our Transforming Tribunals Project.
Commercial tribunals play a critical role in India’s ease of doing business vision, serving as a vital link to ensure investor confidence, business liquidity, and timely resolution of disputes. Originally envisioned to deliver speed, expertise, and investor confidence, commercial tribunals today face persistent challenges, including high pendency, locked-up capital, chronic vacancies, and governance gaps. DAKSH’s baseline report maps these pressures across commercial tribunals, including the NCLT, NCLAT, APTEL, ITAT, CESTAT, SAT, DRT, DRAT, and GSTAT, and proposes pathways to strengthen their functioning.

Eight Annual Constitution Day
DAKSH and the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, Bengaluru have collaborated in producing this Report, the first in a series aimed at better understanding the litigation landscape of Bengaluru.
The High Court of Delhi ran an experimental pilot project for two years to come up with timelines for disposal of different types of cases, and study the effects of an absence of backlog on judicial delay.
It has been a matter of constant dispute in constitutional interpretation whether a constitution should be interpreted in accordance with the intention of the founders or be dynamically driven by the needs of the times.
