Haryana Adds 13 Fast-Track Courts to Accelerate NDPS Case TrialsPreviousNext

The Haryana government has established 13 additional fast-track courts to expedite trials under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, increasing the total to 21. These courts, led by Additional Sessions Judges, are located across districts including Faridabad, Gurugram, Panchkula, Rohtak, Yamunanagar, Fatehabad, and Sirsa. This expansion aims to reduce case backlogs and strengthen efforts against drug trafficking, following earlier court setups in 2022 and 2023.
