Uttarakhand is the first state in the country to have a mobile e-court facility. The arrangements made here are far ahead of such experiments in Telangana in the past. Keeping in view the geographical conditions of the state, a mobile e-court facility has been started for speedy disposal of cases. Its purpose is to give justice to the people at their doorstep. Mobile e-courts were started in the first phase in Pithoragarh, Champawat, Uttarkashi, Tehri, and Chamoli.

These facilities will be available in e-court
The Mobile e-court is equipped with all the facilities. In this, from the courtroom to the Internet, computer, printer, other equipment, the court coordinator will also be present. Witnesses from remote areas, especially IOs and doctors involved in the investigation of criminal incidents will be directly connected to the court through VC from their area and their statements will be recorded. The Registrar General said that the women, children, old witnesses of remote areas who are unable to come to the court due to any reason, should submit their application in writing to the person serving the summons, as well as the revenue worker, PLV, village development officer, court coordinator, etc., can give.

It is difficult for them to reach the court.
In dowry, molestation, rape, and other cases women, children, elderly witnesses, doctors, investigating officers (IOs) take more time to get justice due to practical difficulties in reaching the court. The operation of mobile e-court is a special initiative of the Chief Justice to make the principle of speedy justice a reality. This will save the time of the witnesses as well as the court.
