*🛡️Fast-track Courts*

♟️ *Purpose* Established to address the backlog of criminal cases, especially heinous crimes against women and children.
♟️ *Challenges:* Resource limitations, inefficient investigations, insufficient staff, and limited scope of jurisdiction.
♟️ *Performance* Despite initial increase in functional courts, many states struggle to maintain them due to financial and administrative constraints.
