Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary Announces 100 New Fast‑Track Courts

Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary used the social‑media platform X to announce that the state will establish 100 fast‑track courts. The courts are intended to accelerate the disposal of criminal cases, especially serious offences such as murder, rape, crimes against women and children, POXO violations and cases under the SC/ST Protection Act.

The government says the initiative will reduce case backlogs, ensure quicker sentencing, and bolster public confidence in the justice system. No specific timeline or allocation of districts for the new courts has been disclosed.
