THANE : THE Vashi court in Navi Mumbai in Maharashtra is the first paperless digital court in the country, Bombay High Court judge Gautam Patel said while hailing lawyers who agreed with the concept and worked towards implementing it. He was speaking after inaugurating the district and additional sessions court in Vashi on Friday. E-filing and digital court faced Opposition from several quarters when it started but advocates practising in the Vashi court supported the idea and now the court at Vashi is the first paperless digital court in the country, Justice Patel said.
“To reduce the load on the courts the idea of e-filing and digital court was introduced. Once the entire work of the court becomes paper less the judgements will be speedy,” he said.
