New Delhi, December 19

Noting that the ‘e-Courts Mission Mode Project’ is an important scheme of the Department of Justice aimed at improving access to justice by use of technology, a parliamentary panel has expressed concern over no amount being spent for the FY 2022-23 for want of approvals.

“With a big push for an e-court system for the whole country, e-Courts Mission Mode Project assumes greater importance. Accordingly, the department is expected to expedite all necessary approvals for implementing Phase-III of the e-court project,” the department-related standing committee on law and personnel said in a report tabled in Parliament earlier this month.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
