The National Litigation Policy (NLP) formulated by the Government of India aims to reduce Government litigation so that Government ceases to be a compulsive litigant. The purpose underlying this Policy is to ensure that valuable time of the Courts is spent in resolving pending cases and in bringing down the average pending time in the Courts. To achieve this, the Government should become an ‘efficient’ and ‘responsible’ litigant.
I am directed to say that it has been observed that in many litigation cases pending before various Courts, where the Union of India (UOI) is the Petitioner or the Respondent, Government interests are not being defended with adequate diligence. There is, therefore, a need of putting a system in place so that the cases are regularly monitored and the interest of the UOI is properly safeguarded before the Courts of Law.
Attention is invited to Circular No. 994/01/2015 dated 10.02.2015 on the above subject. Reference has since been received from DGCEI regarding the difficulties in implementing the instructions .The issue has been examined and it has been decided to substitute paragraph 5 of the said Circular dated 10.02.2015
