Live pendency data to be online by Dec 2013, case progress SMSed to litigant phones

Bombay, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh high and subordinate courts will in real time upload their case pendency statistics and case progress reports online, with litigants slated to have access to some of the data via phone text messages. The deadline for these three states’ courts to implement the upgrade was June 2013, and for all the other HCs it is December 2013, according to a Times of India report citing sources.

This data will be on the National Judicial Data Grid (DJDG) which is part of the eCourts project, and is also supposed to assist in formulating policy to reduce case delays. The implementing agency, the National Informatics Centre, has reportedly provisioned 100 “virtual machines” at its national data centre (NDC) in New Delhi to host the flood of real-time data. Data from 17 district courts has already been uploaded by the HCs with the data centre.
