The purpose of Section 20C of the Specific Relief Act, 1963 is to:

Section 20C requires a suit under the Act to be disposed of within twelve months from service of summons, extendable by up to six months for reasons recorded in writing, so its purpose is speedy disposal. It does not set a period for filing suits, which is the Limitation Act's job, and it neither forbids adjournments nor shifts delayed suits to Special Courts.
