In 2015, the Public Works Department undertook the renovation work of the court complex but the process started only by 2017 with an expected time of completion in the same year.The technical assistance for the restoration was given by the Safety for Heritage Structures.[1]
The deadline for completion was then extended to 2018 since the Public Works Department reported more damages than they expected. It was not launched immediately after renovation because of the model court of conduct for the Lok Sabha elections .[2]
The court complex was finally Inaugurated in December 2018. During the time of renovation,the courts functioned at Lily Pond Complex.[3]
