  1. Cost Intensiveness– E-courts will also prove to be capital intensive as setting up state of the art e-courts will require the disposal of new-age technology.  In the distant future, e-courts may face a lack of funds.
  2. Cyber Security- While on technology, a big entanglement will be cybersecurity. However, the government should initiate remedial steps to cure this problem and devise the Cyber Security plan.

  2. Upgrading present infrastructure- An important e-court related would be to rehabilitate the present infrastructure. The current judicial system does not support establishing the e-court, which needs to draw up by the government.
  3. Access Security– One aspect that needs to ponder upon is the deployment of a robust security system that provides secure access to case information for suitable parties. The security of e-courts infrastructure and system is of predominant importance.
  4. Awareness Campaign- Creating awareness around e-courts through roadshows and seminars can help to bring to light the facilities and the ease that e-courts can bring in…

Final Deduction

The e-court mechanism needs the executive and the judiciary to certify their resolve to support an expeditious, structured, and quality justice delivery in the country. It is also important to discuss the steps required to conquer the various challenges facing the justice system. Solutions that will address the challenges such as inordinate delays in disposal of cases in courts, easing access to speedy resolution disputes.

Setting up e-courts can bring blatantness and answerability in the judicial system as they can bring a lot more judicial reforms in a country while helping in dealing with the long-pending cases. E-courts will prove to be a major step in the evolution of country’s legal skeleton and will play a major role in uplifting the confidence in the judiciary.
