What effect can delay in judiciary have on citizens?

Correct answer: It may become difficult to get timely justice

Correct answer: A. A person may approach a court to obtain protection, compensation, release, or another legal remedy. If the case remains pending for a long time, the person may continue to suffer while waiting, and the remedy may lose some of its practical value. Delay can also make it harder to preserve evidence and can impose financial and emotional burdens on the parties. Timely justice does not mean that courts should skip careful hearings; it means that cases should be handled without unnecessary postponement while following fair procedure. B is wrong because delay does not normally mean that a case is decided without a hearing; a fair hearing remains important. C has no connection with judicial delay, and D does not follow from a pending case. Memory cue: justice delayed can become justice weakened in practice, so fairness includes reasonable timeliness.
