Lankan Judges join capacity-building programme in India
View(s):Thirty District Court Judges from Sri Lanka attended a special capacity-building programme organised at the Indian National Judicial Academy, Bhopal, India from 12 to 16 January 2026.
The programme was organised at the request of the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka Judges’ Institute.
The week-long programme encompassed eleven sessions covering key themes such as court and case management for efficient judicial systems; juvenile justice; judicial interventions to combat money laundering; sentencing procedures and related challenges; environmental law jurisprudence; electronic evidence and cybercrime; the use of forensic evidence in civil and criminal trials; judicial stress management and wellness; among others. In addition, the programme featured educational visits, including a field visit to Sanchi, aimed at providing cultural exposure.
It was organised under the enhanced capacity building framework announced by Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi during his State Visit to Sri Lanka in April 2025, whereby 700 customised slots annually for Sri Lankan professionals were added over and above all existing schemes such as ITEC.
With around 300 Sri Lanka civil service officers being training annually under a MoU between the National Centre for Good Governance of India and the Sri Lanka Institute of Development Administration, the enhanced capacity-building endeavor of India thus now benefits 1000 Sri Lankans annually, the Indian High Commission in Colombo said in a news release.
