India's First Paperless District Court Launched in Kerala

India's First Paperless District Court Launched in Kerala

India's first paperless district court has started in Kalpetta, Wayanad, Kerala.

Now, everything in the court is done using computers and digital tools instead of paper.

This means all the steps of a case, like filing, hearing, and giving judgments, are done electronically.

The court uses special computer programs to help judges understand cases faster and record what people say in court.

The Chief Justice of India and other important judges were there to start this new system.

They said this is a big step towards making the court system more efficient and eco-friendly.

The new system was made by the Kerala High Court itself, so they didn't need to use any outside companies.

This change is good for everyone involved, like judges, lawyers, and the people who come to court.
