I have a long-pending land record update case, for which the High Court has passed orders more than four times, including a contempt of court ruling. However, the local officials are still delaying the matter. I came across the following reference: "To claim compensation from the Indian government for undue delay, you can file a petition in court citing the 'doctrine of delay' as a violation of your fundamental right to speedy justice under Article 21 of the Constitution, highlighting the unreasonable delay caused by the government in processing your claim." Do you know if anyone has actually filed a case or writ under Article 21 and successfully claimed compensation?
Sir, you may request the court to enforce compliance with the order issued to you as failure to comply with a court order constitutes contempt of court, and the court has the authority to take appropriate action in response. It is advised to consult an expert lawyer to understand your legal options and ensure proper handling of the matter. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
