Answer: Punjab
Notes: Punjab inaugurated the first-ever dedicated courtroom under the State Scheduled Castes (SC) Commission in November 2025. The courtroom was inaugurated by Chairperson Jasvir Singh Garhi. It is designed to handle SC-related cases efficiently. The initiative aims for faster hearings and timely case disposal. A planned Online Court System will allow virtual appearances for complainants. This improves access to justice for SC communities, especially in remote areas. Punjab’s model is expected to guide other states in strengthening SC-related judicial mechanisms.
