Abstract
As the famous saying goes “Justice Delayed is Justice Denied”……Right to Speedy Justice is said together of the elemental Rights. But sadly it remains just a myth now. The dispensation of justice is of little or no meaning if it's not delivered on time. A delayed justice is nearly no justice. While emphasizing the necessity for quick justice, Justice Anand has rightly said that “People want justice, pure, unpolluted, quick and cheap and that they have every right to receive the same”. But actually there are deplorably long delay within the Dispensation of Justice, the necessity for the speedy justice can't be gained because as said, “If Justice isn't executed speedily men persuade themselves that there's no such thing as justice “.A judiciary which proclaims that an individual is innocent until proven guilty, incarcerates two thirds of these in prisons with none guilt having been proved. Justice, in its literal also as abstract form, remains the very purpose of law, and therefore the very motive of the legal system. Justice is a universal and fundamental principle of law. It is inseparable from law, the maximum amount as that law and justice seem synonymous. So, it becomes the responsibility of the system to supply its seekers justice, in letter and in spirit, which the delivery of justice should be reasonable, just. The just delivery of justice should essentially be a timely one. This is also a universally accepted principle. However, a concept such skeletal is not on ground. The principle so fundamentalist hindered by problems so complex that the immediate solutions are hard to seek out. It is sad that the edifice of the legal system still stands on soft sand, as its foundation remains incomplete.
