Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

4.7 Crore Pending Court Cases ?

 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 !
