Concerted efforts at all levels are necessary to\r\nmeet the challenge. We must forget our differences, which were the result of\r\nmisunderstanding and make sincere efforts to bring efficiency in the judicial\r\nsystem so that miseries of the litigant public are eliminated. Every.\r\nindividual, be he a Judge, a lawyer or anyone else, who, in any way is\r\nconcerned with and has a role in the system of administration of justice, must\r\nmake his positive contribution. We have the potential to improve things.
