The government had projected 2,600 FTSCs by 2026 but has now revised its target to 790 due to low interest from states and a lack of judges, according to the officials and the document, an undated summary from this year of progress on the FTSC project. Details of the federal government's original target and its decision to scale back sharply are reported by Reuters for the first time.
Bengal has now been set a goal of 17 special tribunals by 2026, according to the undated government document and a second Aug. 30 summary on the status of FTSCs in that eastern state seen by Reuters. By contrast, FTSCs focus on specific crimes and can try them speedily. They are also allowed to hire judges on contract, including retired judicial officers.
Senior lawyer Shobha Gupta, who has represented many rape victims, said FTSCs can be useful but that appeals still go through the slow traditional court system.
