Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Your Opportunity to get heard

 


A few days back, I wondered if one of the readers would launch a Google Survey where citizen can express what they think about the “ Actual Achievement “ by the NDA government ( as of July 2022 ), as against BJP’s  Election Manifesto of 2019 ( - called “ Sankalp Patra “ )

 

Without waiting, I have gone ahead and prepared such an “ OPINION  POLL / CITIZEN FEEDBACK “

 

I urge every reader to :

Ø  Take out a few minutes from their busy schedules to fill in the SURVEY ( click following link )

Ø  Forward this message / link to ALL of their CONTACTS , with a request to fill in the survey

Ø  Forward this message to who-so-ever you believe wants to give feedback to the Govt

 

“ Aggregated / Annonymous “ results will be published on :

Ø  WhatsApp / Facebook  / LinkedIn / Twitter / www.hemenparekh.in

Ø  Results will also get e-mailed to our Cabinet Ministers and Policy Makers

 

Remember :

Ø  Unless exercised, “ Freedom of Speech “ is an empty slogan

Ø  People get the Government that they deserve

Ø  Your only option is to “ Persevere “

 

Assurance :

Ø  This survey is absolutely ANONYMOUS

 

To those who feel inconvenienced by this unsolicited message, I offer my apology in advance

 

With regards,

Hemen Parekh

4.7 Crore Pending Court Cases ?

 


Yes - and according to NITI Aayog, at the current rate of disposal, it will take 324 years to clear these

 

Is there a way to speed-up this process ?

Yes. I made following suggestion 4 YEARS ago :

 

Ø  Justice delayed is Justice Denied ……………….[ 12 Sept 2018 ]

 

Extract :

 

If we want to reduce the average “case disposal time “ from 6 YEARS to 6 MONTHS , we must do better than the Chinese – as follows :

         Launch online portal……..www.OnlineJustice.gov.in

      …..having following features / pages / User Interfaces :

   #   Who can register a litigation and how ( detailed form to be filled in )

   #   What kind of complaints can be filed ( Eg; property / divorce / fraud / loans

         etc )

   #   Time frame of hearings ( based on backlog at that point )

   #   Search / Selection of “ empanelled lawyers “ ( with their fees tariff )

   #   Method of conducting “ Online Trial “ ( Audio – Video Conference calls )

   #   Online payment of Court Fees / Lawyer’s fees

   #   Who can “ watch “ the online trial and how ( Video broadcast ) and when

   #   Progress Chart as trial proceeds / Upload – Download of documents

   #   Court Room allotted ( by software ) to each litigation

 

     Not being limited by any “ Physical Constraints “, it will be possible (for the software), to open as many

     Virtual / Online “ Court Rooms as required

     Only limitation will be the Number of available Judges at any given time

Let none have doubts about the ability of our Start Ups to design / develop and

launch such a portal within 6 months , whose “ Conceptual Frame Work “ could

resemble ,

     On Line Jobs Fair   

    Software Architecture For Online Jobs Fair   

 

And as far as finding 10,000 Judges to conduct “ Online Trials “ from the

 comfort of their homes ( and without imposing any “ Infrastructure Burden “ on

 the State

 ( except providing them with a fast broadband connection )

 I suggest that we rope in retired judges on a “ Per Case Retainer “ basis ( paid into their Jan Dhan accounts )

 

There must be a “ Bonus cum Penalty “ formula to govern the payments to the Judges , depending upon the “ Actual Time “ taken to dispose off a given case as against the “Target Time “ ( to be computed by Artificial Intelligent Software , based on historical data being continuously compiled for all the cases , once the portal gets launched )

I urge Chief Justice Hon Deepak Misraji to treat this email as a PIL and “ direct

 “ the NDA government to initiate action on this suggestion

( I cannot afford a lawyer ! )

 Your " Activism " in this matter will go a long way to restore the faith of the

 ordinary citizens in the judiciary  !

 


Did the Government implement your suggestion ?


Yes – it seems so ( even if partially ). Read following news report :

Rajasthan introduces the first digital Lok Adalat in India  /  Current Affairs  /  19  July  2022

Extract :

During the 18th All India Legal Services Authorities’ convention, which was held here, National Legal Services Authority Chairman Uday Umesh Lalit unveiled the first digital Lok Adalat driven by artificial intelligence. Rajasthan State Legal Services Authority’s (RSLSA) digital Lok Adalat was created by Jupitice Justice Technologies, the organization’s technological partner.

Extract from portal of Jupitice :

Ø  An Online Marketplace that connects Disputing Parties & Neutrals on a common platform to enable Disputing Parties to find, evaluate, negotiate & hire their own independent Arbitrators, Conciliators, Mediators, Negotiators, Lawyers, Experts etc

Ø  "Dispute Resolution Platform" or a "Private Digital Court" that enables & facilitates all the participants to perform End-to-End Dispute Resolution Processes, under any dispute resolution methods, all Online without the need for physical appearance in meetings or hearings and paper-based tasks.


Ø  Single Platform that offers :

      #  Simple Complaints Handling  /   Grievance Redressal  /  Mediation

          /  Conciliation  ArbitrationAdjudication (all online )

Ø  Never file a Court Case ?......................[ 30 Aug 2017 ]

 

Extract :

       In all the Indian Courts , there are 3.15 crore cases pending disposal

       Of these, over 10 % are pending for over 10 years , due to repeated

       adjournments by judges


Now , the Code of Criminal Procedure ( CrPC ) says :

“ No judge can give repeated adjournments in a case – not more than three

 unless it is extremely unavoidable


In cases where more than three adjournments are given, a judge has to record

the reasons for the same


The government wants High Courts to monitor and regularly provide figures to it

on the cases disposed of by district courts, in which the courts have adhered to

the limit of three adjournments as mandated in CPC ( Civil Procedure Code )


I urge the government to AUTOMATE such DATA COMPILATION, by implementing
