Hon'ble Mr. Justice N.V. Ramana,
The Chief
Justice of India,
New Delhi.
Subject:
A Humble Request for bringing the
data of cases of the Supreme Court India under the National Judicial Data Grid
(NJDG).
Reference to the subject mentioned above, we
on the behalf of our trust the Association for Judicial Reforms, India (AJRI),
want to humbly submit the following submissions for the kind consideration of
lordship for enhancing public faith and trust in fairness and independency of
Judiciary, using the latest Information and Communication Technology :
1. That
our Trust, Association for Judicial Reforms, India (AJRI) is working for the
cause of Judicial Reforms by suggesting practical ways to all the stakeholders
of the Justice Delivery System based on public experiences and analytical legal
research.
2. That
as our Trust believes that the evolution of the present Judicial system within its
jurisdictions is the best-suited methodology to bring judicial reforms in
India, we at AJRI work for documenting the public experiences of
litigants/lawyers, and synergize these with analytical research carried out by
our researchers, to suggest only those practical ways, which if implemented in
accordance with the present Constitutional/Statutory provisions will bring
valuable reforms in the present Judicial system.
3. That
the e-Committee of the Supreme Court of India working under the patronship of
the lordship, and efficient chairmanship of Dr. Justice Dhananjaya Y Chandrachud
has brought various reforms in the Justice delivery system of India by using
the Information and Communication Technology (ICT), we at AJRI acknowledge the
reforms carried out by the e-Committee of the Supreme Court of India for
enabling Indian Judiciary as well as all stakeholders with the usage of
technologies.
4. That
We at AJRI being an organization working for brining the practical Judicial
Reforms in India, and in our continued efforts for the above-said objective, we
humbly request your good self to bring the data of cases of the Supreme Court
of India under the ambit of the National Judicial Data Grid (NJDG).
5. That
as of date, one can access the live data of cases of district courts and the
High Courts of India in tabular and as well as graphical ways, which enables
the higher judicial authorities and legal researchers to know where lays the
pendency in Indian Justice Delivery system, and what remedies are required for
the same, whereas in case of the Supreme Court of India, we have to rely only on
a static data provided in the annual report of Supreme Court of India, thus in
the absence live data of cases of the Apex court of India, one can’t able to link
the cases pending in the Supreme Court of India with those cases of district
courts and the High Courts, wherein pendency of years is for want of final
adjudication by the apex court of India side.
6. That
in the month of February 2022, the PIO of the Supreme Court of India in reply to
the RTI query filed by our Trustee, categorically stated that the e-Committee
of the Supreme Court of India to date has not considered a proposal for
bringing the data of cases of the Supreme Court under the ambit of NJDG.
7. That
it’s on public records that linking of Indian courts through NJDG has
specifically helped India to improve its ranking in the World Bank’s Ease of
Doing Business Report, and further linking of the supreme court of India with
NJDG will also enhance the prospects of our country in above said crucial
ranking of India, a crucial tool in now-a-day economy induced world.
8. That
We at AJRI request your lordship to direct the concerned authorities for
linking the data of cases of the supreme court of India with the National Judicial Data Grid (NJDG) at the earliest in the interest of justice and in the public interest at large.
Keeping in view the above
mentioned humble submissions it is kindly requested to consider the suggested
suggestions in the interest of justice, in case of suggestive measures are
positively implemented in the interest of fairness and independency of the Indian
Judiciary, assistance from our side is always at the disposal of one of fairest
and independent justice delivery systems in the prevailing world.
