President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has said there was need to work out a total e-judiciary system for implementation by the courts.
"From the time the case is registered, till it is disposed of with judgment, the entire processing must take place electronically," Dr. Kalam said addressing the golden jubilee celebrations of the Andhra Pradesh High Court here on Thursday. This would enable disposal of cases in a transparent and quicker manner.
The Government had approved a plan to connect all the 15,000 courts in the country from the district to the Supreme Court through Wide Are a Network, he pointed out. The President said the Andhra Pradesh High Court could consider creation of mobile legal aid and Lok Adalat for on-the-spot settlement of cases in rural areas.
The High Court could suggest to the village authorities introduction of a system for out-of-court settlement in villages with the assistance of some unbiased persons in the region.
