New Special NIA Courts Designated in Maharashtra and Delhi for Scheduled Offence TrialsPreviousNext

The Ministry of Home Affairs and the Delhi government have designated new special courts for National Investigation Agency (NIA) cases under the NIA Act, 2008. Maharashtra's special NIA court is established at Mumbai's City Civil and Sessions Court to handle all state-wide scheduled offences. In Delhi, three new special courts at the Rouse Avenue District Courts Complex replace the Patiala House Court's jurisdiction to centralize and expedite trials of terrorism and other scheduled offences investigated by the NIA.
