Background
Overview
FTCs represent a significant judicial reform initiative aimed at addressing the critical issue of judicial pendency and ensuring access to timely justice, which is vital for good governance and rule of law.
Fast-Track Courts (FTCs) are special courts established in India to ensure speedy disposal of long-pending cases, particularly those involving serious offenses or matters of public importance, thereby reducing judicial pendency and ensuring timely justice. They were initially conceived to clear the backlog of cases, especially those involving undertrials.
