n a significant move to enhance judicial access and efficiency, the Odisha government has established three new Civil Judge Courts (Junior Division) in Baliapal, Lefripada, and Rengali. Approved by Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi in consultation with the Odisha High Court, this decision aims to address the growing judicial demands in these regions and reduce the burden on existing judicial bodies.
The newly formed courts will cater to their respective tehsils, providing localized legal recourse, faster case resolution, and reduced travel time for residents. This development is a step forward in Odisha’s commitment to fortifying its judicial framework, especially in rural and semi-urban areas. Legal experts and community members have welcomed the move, citing its potential to improve the overall efficiency of the justice system.
