Governance Reforms
The NDA Government will unveil, before the end of 2004,
comprehensive Good Governance Reforms, which will focus on:
1) Administrative reforms to check corruption, promote
transparency and accountability, remove delays in decision-making;
and to make government employees treat the people as their masters.
2) Electoral reforms to check the unhealthy influence of money
power and prevent criminalization of politics.
3) Judicial reforms for speedy and affordable justice.
4) Political reforms to raise the standards and efficacy of Parliament,
State Legislatures, and other elected bodies.
5) Reform of ministries to speed up decision making and develop
better capabilities for policy formulation and implementation.
6) Good Corporate Governance reforms to ensure lawful and ethical
business practices, protection of shareholders' interests, and consumer
protection.
Judicial Reforms
1) A Rs. 1,000-crore Fund for Modernization of Courts will be set
up to improve the physical and operational infrastructure of courts.
This will receive partial contribution from the legal community. Judicial
officers will be empowered to involve the community in improving the
facilities in a transparent manner.
2) The number of courts and the number of judges will be doubled in
five years for quicker judicial process.
3) A separate class of courts will be set up for cases involving specified
commercial laws such as the Contract Act, Negotiable Instruments Act,
and other business laws. These would deliver quicker justice to
aggrieved businesses, and would be partly funded by charging both
litigants a "Fast Track" fee.
4) Reform of the criminal justice system to make dispensation of
justice simpler, quicker, and more effective.
5) Courts all over the country will be computerized and networked for
improving their efficiency.
6) Extension of Fast-Track Courts to all layers of the judiciary.
7) Expansion of alternative dispute redressal mechanisms through Lok
Adalats and Tribunals.
8) Setting up a National Judicial Commission for appointment of
judges and ensuring judicial ethics.
9) A Judicial Procedural Reforms Committee will suggest, within
six months, how to halve the time taken to conduct every trial, civil or
criminal. The aim would be to ensure that three-fourths of all court
cases are completed in twelve months.
10) The number of cases in which the Government is a litigant will be
halved in the next three years.
Administrative, Police, Civil Service and other Reforms
