Chief Justice Sinha also launched FASTER Cell & e-Certified Copy services at the High Court. The initiative aims to enhance efficiency, accessibility and transparency in justice delivery across the State. The event was attended by Justice Narendra Kumar Vyas, Chairman of the Computerization Committee, Justice Naresh Kumar Chandravanshi, Member of the Computerization Committee, Justice Rakesh Mohan Pandey, Portfolio Judge of District Bastar at Jagdalpur and also Member of the Computerization Committee, Justice Ravindra Kumar Agrawal, Member of the Computerization Committee and Justice Bibhu Datta Guru, Portfolio Judge of Dakshin Bastar (Dantewada) and also a Member of the Computerization Committee. In his address, Chief Justice Sinha emphasised the integration of technology into the mainstream judicial function. He said: "The Digitization Centres, a project envisioned under the supervision of the Supreme Court of India, will address the issue of voluminous physical records, making them easily accessible and preventing loss". He expressed a hope that while ten Districts in the State have introduced this project, the same it would be implemented across the entire State of Chhattisgarh by the end of June. Chief Justice Sinha also urged all stakeholders, including lawyers, litigants, and court staff, to make full use of these new facilities. Further reflecting on bolstering digital accessibility, Justice Sinha highlighted the paradigm shift brought about by the introduction of e-Certified Copy and the FASTER Cell. "The e-Certified Copy platform allows online applications for certified copies of court orders and judgments, eliminating the need for physical visits and long queues, while promoting sustainability by reducing paper usage. The FASTER (Fast and Secured Transmission of Electronic Records), aims to ensure the swift and secure transmission of electronic records. This system will facilitate immediate and eauthenticated delivery of judgments and orders to relevant courts and authorities, significantly improving the efficiency of the judicial system, particularly in the timely release of individuals after bail is granted," he remarked. The event commenced with the welcome address by Principal District & Sessions Judge, Dhamtari and concluded with the vote of thanks by Principal District & Sessions Judge, Uttar Bastar Kanker. The event was attended by Judicial Officers, including the Principal District & Sessions Judges, Presidents and Members of the District Bar Associations, Employees and Administrative Officers from the five Districts.
