Multiple technology initiatives - Digital Supreme Court Reports, Digital Courts 2.0 and new website of Supreme Court were launched by Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi at the Diamond Jubilee celebration of Supreme Court at the Supreme Court auditorium, New Delhi on January 28, 2024
In a significant step towards digitization and accessibility, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi inaugurated the Diamond Jubilee celebration of the Supreme Court of India. The event took place in the Supreme Court audi-torium on January 28th, marking the court’s 75th year. During this event, the Prime Minister launched several citizen-centric technological initiatives. These include the Digital Supreme Court Reports (Digi SCR), the Digital Courts 2.0 application, and the Supreme Court’s re-vamped website. The Digital SCR initiative is a landmark move to democratise access to justice, making all Supreme Court judgments since 1950 available free of charge in a digital, user-friendly format. This archive encompasses over 36,308 cases across 519 volumes. Further enhancing judicial efficiency, the Digital Courts 2.0 application, an extension of the e-Courts project, aims to digitise court records for district court judges. It incorporates advanced artificial intelligence for real-time speech-to-text transcription. Lastly, the Prime Minister unveiled the Supreme Court’s new bilingual website, featuring an interface in both English and Hindi, designed for im-proved user experience. These initiatives represent a significant stride to-wards a more transparent and accessible judiciary system in India.
