This statment talks about the delay in justice becouse if there is no justice there will be no peace in the society,and if the justice is delayed there will be no value of law and order amongst the individuals there is a long list of different incidents which took place two decades ago and still those cases are pending in court for the final verdict,some of the most important cases are as follows:
Bhopal Gas TragedyFact File: Dec 3, 1984. Some 500,000 people are exposed to poisonous gases in the state capital of Madhya Pradesh, India. Between 5000-8000 people died immediately and thousands over the years from long term illness. More than 100,00 remain chronically ill in Bhopal today. The water and soil of the area is still contaminated.
Babri Masjid Demolition
Fact File: Dec 6, 1992. A mosque in the city Ayodhya of Uttar Pradesh, India, is destroyed by a strong crowd of 150,000 people. The police stood a mute spectator! More than 2000 people die across India in the riots that follow.
Godhra Massacre
Fact File: February, 27 2002. 58 Hindu passengers are burnt alive in a coach of Sabarmati Express in Godhra, Gujarat, by a alleged Muslim mob. In the resulting riots more than 1000 (by official estimates and 2000 by independent sources) people, mostly Muslims, are butchered. The violence is covered extensively by the Indian media.

More than 2000 people die across India in the riots that follow.The Justice Liberhan Commission set up by the Government of India to investigate the demolition, took 48 extensions and 17 years to submit its report. The report itself has nothing new to offer. What a waste of public money and time.
Godhra Massacre
Fact File: February, 27 2002. 58 Hindu passengers are burnt alive in a coach of Sabarmati Express in Godhra, Gujarat, by a alleged Muslim mob. In the resulting riots more than 1000 (by official estimates and 2000 by independent sources) people, mostly Muslims, are butchered. The violence is covered extensively by the Indian media.The cases are still being probed. Only a handful of the large numbers of accused have been found guilty and punished.
No wonder there are some 30 million unresolved legal cases in India. The police-politician nexus has to be broken for the court to work freely. And until that happens the unresolved cases would only add up.

Hey hi,justice delayed is justice denied this is a very popular quote. We do not want a delay in justice and things are far more improved now a days. As far as i know, the Babri masjid case is settled now,isn't it? This is a very popular case relating to the riot between hindus and muslims.
