The Madras High Court has launched the dedicated Digital Dashboard to monitor unclaimed amounts in Motor Accident Claims Petitions (MCOPs) and Labour Court cases. 

The Dashboard has been developed in coordination with the National Informatics Centre (NIC), Madras, and was approved by the High Court's Computer Committee in its meeting held on September 28. 

The Dashboard is now live and accessible at: http://hcmadras.tn.gov.in/mact 

The Registry, through its directive dated October 6 has instructed all Principal District Judges to ensure that subordinate courts update and make requisite entries in the Dashboard for cases arising under, the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923, Pending Labour Court cases.

The major benefits of the Dashboard are:

  • Identification of unclaimed compensation deposits.
  • Facilitation of faster disbursement to rightful beneficiaries. 
  • Centralised monitoring of compensation deposits across courts. 
  • Assistance in tracing missing claimants through coordination with Legal Services Authorities, paralegal volunteers, police, and revenue officials.
  • Enhanced transparency and accountability in compliance monitoring.
  • Improved administrative efficiency by reducing reliance on scattered records.
  • Protection of claimants' financial interests through fixed-deposit safeguards. 
  • Support for monitoring compliance with judicial directions.
