Srinagar: The Jammu and Kashmir High Court has asked government to create at earliest posts for maintaining cleanliness of Mominabad District Court complex, a state-of-the-art court structure, in outskirts of Srinagar, underlining that state can’t allow the good assent to deteriorate.
“The proposal of creation of posts for maintaining cleanliness of Mominabad District Court Complex, Srinagar, ought to be cleared at the earliest because having created such a good asset, the State should not permit it to deteriorate,” said a division bench of the court headed by Chief Justice Badar Durrez Ahmed while hearing a Public Interest Litigation.
The construction of new Court Complex on the outskirts of Srinagar was conceived in 2003. It has been built by the R&B Department at a cost of Rs 120.28 crore on 28.6 acres (around 230 kanals) of land with more than 2.5 lakh sq ft of working space comprising state-of-art, eco-friendly complexes, each having its own central courtyard.
The Complex has 63 court rooms, Business Centre, a modern library, Petition Writers Block with 152 work stations, Service Building, Food Court, besides conference rooms and Lok Adalat chambers. It will completely end the judicial operations at District Saddar Court which opened in 1911.
