Assam: PM Modi says tech alternative dispute resolution, vital for justice

Guwahati: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said that technology needs to be brought into play to speed up the justice delievery system, especially in remote areas such as in the northeast.

While speaking at the concluding ceremony of the Platinum Jubilee celebrations of Gauhati High, Modi said “technology can help bring justice to remote areas such as in the northeast.

Indicating how lack of clarity in property ownership has proven to be a burden on the judiciary, he gave an example of how drones have been used to bring a solution by “mapping properties in over 1 lakh villages under the PM Swamitva Yojana.”

He also said, “Alternative dispute resolution systems are vital”, and added that the North East has rich traditions in this regard.

“Government, judiciary has own roles in ensuring ‘ease of living’, and technology is a powerful tool for it,” Modi asserted.

PM Modi also maintained that the alternative dispute resolution system was an important pillar of judicial delivery.

Paying tribute to Babasaheb Ambedkar on his birth anniversary, Modi said, “It is a happy coincidence that today is Babasaheb Ambedkar’s anniversary. He had played the main role in framing our Constitution.”

“The law schools should also teach about these,” he said, lauding the Gauhati High Court for recently coming out with a book on customary laws of the region.
