4.7 Crore Pending Court Cases ?
https://lnkd.in/ddR8xmQm
--------------------------------------------------------
Yes - and according to NITI Aayog, at the current rate of disposal, it will take 324 years to clear these
Is there a way to speed-up this process ?
Yes. I made following suggestion 4 YEARS ago :
Ø Justice delayed is Justice Denied ……………….[ 12 Sept 2018 ]
Extract :
If we want to reduce the average “case disposal time “ from 6 YEARS to 6 MONTHS , we must do better than the Chinese – as follows :
Launch online portal……..www.OnlineJustice.gov.in
…..having following features / pages / User Interfaces :
# Who can register a litigation and how ( detailed form to be filled
in )
# What kind of complaints can be filed ( Eg; property / divorce /
fraud / loans etc )
# Time frame of hearings ( based on backlog at that point )
# Search / Selection of “ empanelled lawyers “ ( with their fees
tariff )
# Method of conducting “ Online Trial “ ( Audio – Video
Conference calls )
# Online payment of Court Fees / Lawyer’s fees
# Who can “ watch “ the online trial and how ( Video broadcast )
and when
# Progress Chart as trial proceeds / Upload – Download of
documents
# Court Room allotted ( by software ) to each litigation
Not being limited by any “ Physical Constraints “, it will be
possible (for the software), to open as many “ Virtual / Online “
Court Rooms as required
Only limitation will be the Number of available Judges at any
given time
Let none have doubts about the ability of our Start Ups to design / develop and launch such a portal within 6 months
And as far as finding 10,000 Judges to conduct “ Online Trials “ from the comfort of their homes ( and without imposing any “ Infrastructure Burden “ on the State
( except providing them with a fast broadband connection )
I suggest that we rope in retired judges on a “ Per Case Retainer “ basis ( paid into their Jan Dhan accounts )
There must be a “ Bonus cum Penalty “ formula to govern the payments to the Judges , depending upon the “ Actual Time “ taken to dispose off a given case as against the “Target Time “ ( to be computed by Artificial Intelligent Software , based on historical data being continuously compiled for all the cases , once the portal gets launched )
I urge Chief Justice Hon Deepak Misraji to treat this email as a PIL and “ direct “ the NDA government to initiate action on this suggestion
( I cannot afford a lawyer ! )
Your " Activism " in this matter will go a long way to restore the faith of the ordinary citizens in the judiciary !
