These include expanding court circuits, introducing electronic filing systems, constructing new court facilities, and broadening access to legal services in rural districts. ​Senior Chief Mponda welcomed the initiative, noting that the session had clarified which courts hold jurisdiction over specific matters. He pledged to work alongside judicial officers to ensure local communities report grievances through formal legal channels. appeared first on Malawi News | Breaking News, Politics, Business & Sports | Nyasa Times.
