Under the law relating to the right to information, every public authority is required to designate officers who shall receive requests from citizens and provide the information sought, subject to the exemptions recognised by the statute. A request may be made in writing or through electronic means, and the applicant is not required to give any reason for seeking the information. The officer concerned shall dispose of the request within the period prescribed, either by furnishing the information on payment of the applicable fee or by rejecting it for reasons to be recorded in writing. Where the information sought concerns the life or liberty of a person, the period for response is considerably shorter. If the request pertains to a subject matter more closely connected with another public authority, it shall be transferred to that authority and the applicant shall be informed of such transfer without delay. An order of rejection must state the provision under which the request has been declined, the period within which an appeal may be preferred and the particulars of the appellate authority. Failure to respond within the stipulated time may be treated as a deemed refusal, entitling the applicant to approach the first appellate authority. The appellate authority, after giving the parties an opportunity of being heard, may direct disclosure, uphold the refusal or pass such other order as it considers appropriate. Officers are therefore expected to maintain proper records of every request received, the action taken thereon and the date of communication to the applicant. Delay in the disposal of civil suits is frequently attributed to the routine grant of adjournments. The procedural law permits the court to adjourn the hearing of a suit from time to time if sufficient cause is shown, but it also places limits on how often this may be done. Ordinarily, not more than three adjournments are to be granted to a party during the hearing of a suit, and the court is required to record its reasons whenever an adjournment is allowed.

The Delhi High Court recruits Junior Judicial Assistants through a written examination, a typing test and an interview or skill stage, depending on the year. The typing test is in English and is commonly described with a target of 35 words per minute. Delhi is an English-medium court, so passages tend to be extracts from orders and judgments with long sentences, case citations and formal legal phrasing. That makes accurate typing of punctuation and numbers as important as raw speed.

Typing like a court assistant

A Junior Judicial Assistant spends much of the day typing orders, cause lists and notices. The typing test reflects that: expect words such as petitioner, respondent, impugned, adjournment, hereinafter and notwithstanding, along with section numbers and dates. Typing these fluently is a skill you build only by practising similar text.

Capital letters matter. Case titles, names of statutes and courts all start with capitals, and a missed Shift key turns a correct word into an error.

Speed target and margin

If your notice asks for 35 WPM, aim for 40 WPM net in practice. Exam nerves, an unfamiliar keyboard and a difficult passage can easily cost four or five words per minute on the day.
