Tirur Bar seeks modern court complex to replace century-old building
The Tirur Bar Association is calling for a new, modern court complex to replace their century-old building. They cite severe infrastructure limitations, including a lack of space for digital courtrooms, accessibility features, and basic public amenities.
Why it matters
Modernizing judicial infrastructure is critical for improving the efficiency of the legal system and ensuring access to justice for all citizens.
The Tirur Bar Association has demanded a new court complex at Tirur, citing the limitations of the existing facility, which was established in 1910.
The present court complex has served the region for over a century, but it lacks the infrastructure needed for the growing number of cases and modern judicial requirements, said Bar Association officials.
More than 500 lawyers currently practise under the Tirur Bar Association, but the complex does not have enough space for offices, a library or consultation rooms.
Hundreds of litigants, police personnel, witnesses, and court staff who visit the court daily also face a shortage of waiting areas, sanitation facilities, and parking space.
The existing building does not have adequate facilities for digital courtrooms, e-filing, secure record storage, and accessibility for senior citizens and persons with disabilities.
