Set up HC Circuit Bench in Gurugram, Haryana MP urges Central govt.

What happened: Sanjay Bhatia urges a High Court circuit bench in Gurugram

Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Bhatia urged the Centre to establish a Circuit Bench of the Punjab and Haryana High Court in Gurugram. He raised the demand during Zero Hour in the Monsoon Session, linking the request to easier access to High Court hearings for litigants in Haryana.

Bhatia argued that travel to courts outside the districts increases litigation costs and contributes to delays in case resolution.

Background and earlier position: Access barriers for litigants who must travel to Chandigarh

Bhatia said litigants from southern Haryana districts—Gurugram, Faridabad, Nuh, Palwal, Rewari, and Mahendragarh—have to travel to Chandigarh for High Court matters.
