While the foundation stone for the multi-level parking will be laid on February 14 by Chief Justice of India K G Balakrishnan, the project is scheduled to be completed in nine months.

The period of construction may not prove comforting for those litigants who were already tugging it out with the crunch in parking space in the court premises. The current parking lot in the High Court had been reserved for the advocates, courtesy a decision of the High Court Bar.

“Once completed, the three-storeyed multi-level parking project will solve the parking troubles in the court premises. We are in the process of making some alternate arrangements to ensure that the parking menace does not worsen,” said President of the High Court Bar Association Advocate Rupinder S Khosla.
