Union Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, and Skill Development Rajeev Chandrasekhar on Monday lauded the efforts of the High Court of Karnataka in meeting the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Timely use and adoption of technology by way of swiftly switching to virtual hearings ensured dispensation of justice amidst health crisis, he said, while launching the e-governance portal of the Advocates Association Bengaluru (AAB).
Latest emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, machine learning must be leveraged to expedite disbursal of court cases and bring down the pendency of the cases, and shatter another age old narrative about it, Mr. Chandrasekhar said.
