CJI Surya Kant inaugurated Phase III of the e-Courts Project, aiming to transform India’s justice system. He emphasised the initiative goes beyond digitisation, focusing on redesigning access to justice and improving efficiency, inclusivity, and citizen centric service delivery nationwide.
Justice Ahsanuddin Amanullah said rising case backlog cannot be blamed solely on judges, highlighting advocates’ role in delays. He noted judges handle hundreds of daily cases, stressing pendency often stems from systemic and procedural issues beyond judicial working hours.
