The Chhattisgarh Civil Court (Amendment) Act, 2016

This law amends the Chhattisgarh Civil Courts Act to change the monetary limits for pressure cases that can be filed in lower civil courts. Specifically, Section 6 is updated by increasing the threshold for financial disputes from two lakh rupees to ten lakh rupees. This change ensures that major financial matters are routed to higher courts or specialized tribunals where they can be handled by appropriate judicial officers, while allowing lower courts to manage smaller, routine civil claims more efficiently.
