Prime Minister Modi to Launch Supreme Court’s Diamond Jubilee Celebration

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate the Supreme Court’s Diamond Jubilee celebration on Sunday, marking the 75th year of the institution. The event will witness the launch of citizen-centric information and technology initiatives, including the Digital Supreme Court Reports (Digi-SCR), Digital Courts 2.0, and a revamped website for the apex court.

Scheduled for January 28 at 12 noon in the Supreme Court auditorium, the inauguration will be accompanied by Prime Minister Modi addressing the gathering. The Digi-SCR initiative aims to provide citizens with free and electronically accessible Supreme Court judgments. It encompasses all 519 volumes of Supreme Court reports since 1950, covering 36,308 cases, in a user-friendly digital format with open access.

The Digital Courts 2.0 application, part of the e-Courts project, focuses on delivering court records to district court judges in electronic form, utilizing artificial intelligence for real-time speech-to-text transcription.

Furthermore, Prime Minister Modi will unveil the new bilingual (English and Hindi) Supreme Court website, featuring a redesigned and user-friendly interface. Following the inauguration, a Ceremonial Bench of the Supreme Court will convene at 3:30 pm in the Chief Justice Court, presided over by the Chief Justice of India and companion judges. The event will also include the participation of chief justices from high courts and former Supreme Court judges.

Notable figures such as the Chief Justice of India, the Attorney General for India, and the President of the Supreme Court Bar Association will address the occasion, making it a comprehensive celebration of the Supreme Court’s Diamond Jubilee. The inaugural sitting of the Supreme Court took place on January 28, 1950, marking a significant milestone in the history of the judiciary.
