New Delhi, Aug 31 (IANS) In a first, six senior-most judges of the Delhi High Court on Thursday morning visited six district courts here for surprise inspections to check the punctuality and discipline of judges there.
The judges were led by Acting Chief Justice Gita Mittal.
"The inspections began simultaneously at all district courts at sharp 10 p.m. to check punctuality, discipline and functioning of these courts," said D.K. Sharma, Registrar General of the Delhi High Court.
"It was unprecedented. It has never happened in the past that judges held similar kind of surprise inspection," Sharma told IANS.
