PM Modi said there is no better time for using technology in justice delivery than now when there is so much natural ability for innovation and adaptation.
Underlining that the ease of justice is equally necessary as ease of living or ease of doing business at a time when India is celebrating 75 years of independence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Saturday lauded the efforts to adopt technology in the justice delivery mechanism.
Speaking at the inaugural session of the first All India District Legal Services Authorities Meet at Vigyan Bhavan, Modi said that when Bhim/UPI was introduced a few years back, there were some who felt that it would remain limited to a small sector. “But today we see digital payments happening even in villages,” he said, adding, “40 per cent of all real time digital payments in the world happen in India”.
The PM said there is no better time for using technology in justice delivery than now when there is so much natural ability for innovation and adaptation.
Modi said he is happy that under the monitoring of the Supreme Court, the country’s justice mechanism is moving fast in the direction of adopting technology in its work.
