        I was reading that Supreme Court works for 193 days in a year while high court 210 days. With so many pending cases in our courts why do these courts take so many vacations ?

                  This is happening since British time and were never reformed and now no one can reform it unless CJI himself wants to do it.

                  You know why we have so much pending cases.
                  Noone wants to take ownership and fix British era rules.

                      Some things will never be fixed. There is no entity that can change this except the SC. And why would the SC do that?

                        The High Court and Supreme Court judges spend massive amounts of time reading the submissions and case laws from both the sides before passing the judgements.

                        A lot of their vacation days and weekends are utilised for the above.

                        It is the lower courts that keep giving continuances without application of mind. Allowing time should be a rare occurrence. However, in lower courts it is given too liberally. Which is abused by both parties to their advantage.

                          These lordships won’t fix century old practices but preach us.
