Supreme Court Orders E-Prison Portal Demonstration

On September 25, the Supreme Court directed the Registrar (Judicial) to arrange a demonstration of the E-Prison Portal at 4:15 PM on October 15. Justices Abhay S. Oka and Augustine George Masih are reviewing a suo moto case regarding bail policy, focusing on ensuring timely release for prisoners granted bail.

The Court had previously addressed the E-Prison module in a November 29, 2022 order, which aims to streamline data updates related to court cases in collaboration with prison authorities. Additionally, the initiative includes developing a “Draft Information Sharing Protocol” by the National Information Centre (NIC).
