The Rohini District Court complex serves North-West Delhi and is one of the busiest in the capital. Advocate Kanisth Manuja appears at Rohini as an advocate in Rohini Court in criminal, matrimonial and property matters, and conducts them personally rather than passing them to a junior after the first meeting.
What Rohini Court covers
Rohini exercises jurisdiction over North-West Delhi, including Rohini, Pitampura, Shalimar Bagh, Ashok Vihar, Narela, Bawana, Kanjhawala and the surrounding areas. Which complex your matter belongs to is determined by where the cause of action arose or where the police station is located, not by where you live — a point worth checking before anything is filed.

- Bail applications before the Magistrate and the Sessions Court
- Anticipatory bail before the Sessions Court
- Criminal trials under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023

Why the complex matters in practice
District court practice is substantially about local knowledge: which court is taking up which category of matter, how listings actually run on a given day, and how quickly a certified copy can be obtained. An advocate who is regularly at Rohini can usually get an urgent bail application moved on the same day, where someone unfamiliar with the complex would lose a day simply locating the file.
Other Delhi complexes
Matters are also handled at Tis Hazari, Saket, Dwarka and Karkardooma, and before the Delhi High Court. The courts page sets out the full list.
