DATA tabled in the Lok Sabha on August 1 has revealed that India's Fast Track Special Courts (FTSCs), established to expedite justice in cases of rape and child sexual abuse under the POCSO Act, continue to face serious delays in trial disposal - with several states recording an average trial duration of over three years.
As per the Ministry of Law and Justice, 725 FTSCs, including 392 exclusive POCSO (e-POCSO) courts, are currently operational across 29 States and Union Territories. These courts, created under a Centrally Sponsored Scheme funded through the Nirbhaya Fund, have together handled 5,38,772 cases since inception. Of these, 3,34,213 cases have been disposed of - roughly 62% of the total.
