Bokajan: With an aim to reduce the load in the district courts and ensure hassle-free grievance redressal, Justice Mr Alfaz Ali, Portfolio Judge, Karbi Anglong, Gauhati High Court; inaugurated the new sub-divisional judiciary courts at Bokajan in East Karbi Anglong on Saturday. The court building is located at the Veterinary campus near CCI plant, Bokajan.

While inaugurating the courts of the first class judicial magistrate and the SDJM, the Justice said that these courts were established to deliver hassle-free justice at the doorstep of the common man. “Earlier the people had to travel to the district headquarter for grievance redressal, which was a rather time consuming and troublesome affair. But now separate and independent judiciary at the sub-divisional levels will ensure easy hassle free delivery of justice at the threshold of every household,” the Justice added.

The Judiciary was separated from Executive a couple of year back in Karbi Anglong and the district saw its first judicial court in Diphu on August 12, 2017. Earlier, both the Judiciary and Executive were placed together in the office of the DC who took up both matters by himself and his executive magistrates. The change came in line with Article 50 of the Indian Constitution which recommends separation of Judiciary and Executive upholding the supreme rule of law in the country.
