Supreme Court Judge Justice T S Thakur has hailed Haryana as the leading state in providing judicial infrastructural facilities.
"No other state has court complexes, residential houses for judges, Alternate Dispute Resolution Centres, chambers of advocates and other facilities related to courts like Haryana," said Justice Thakur, who is also Chairman of Supreme Court Legal Services Committee.
Justice Thakur was speaking after inaugurating the Sub-Divisional Judicial Courts Complex at Gohana in Sonepat district today, according to a Haryana Government release.
Justice Thakur said that he has worked in many states of the country and "at some places, conditions are so worse that judges even carry out hearings under trees whereas in Haryana, there are air-conditioned courts and chambers for advocates".
Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda said "the judicial system is a strong pillar of democracy and it is necessary that people should have faith in it."
He urged the advocates to charge less fee from the poor.
