JABALPUR: Presenting a roadmap "to do away with pending cases in Madhya Pradesh courts in next four-five years," President A P J Abdul Kalam on Thursday favoured implementation of an "e-judiciary" system.
"The Centre has approved the action for connecting all the 15,000 courts in the country, from the district level to the Supreme Court, through a wide area network. I consider this as a very important step and should be completed through a mission mode and time bound operation," Kalam said.
He was delivering a lecture on "Dynamics of Justice Delivery System" on the occasion of Golden Jubilee Celebrations of the Madhya Pradesh High Court here.
The President also said it was essential to introduce National Citizen Identity Card throughout the country within a year as "it will bring order and accountability in the society and minimize crimes".
Stating that small aim is a crime and great aims make great nation, he commended the average yearly clearance of cases by a judge in the state High Court that was higher than the national average of 2,000 cases, and asked them to raise it from 3,200 to 6,000 cases so as to clear pending cases in next four-five years.
Kalam suggested systematic age analysis and grouping of the cases through computer-based sorting out methodology, to bring down the number of pending cases in a time bound manner.
