Earlier, the top court said steps had been taken for the introduction and implementation of a uniform, reliable and secure methodology for identifying and citing decisions in the apex court, namely the neutral citations system, to ensure a uniform pattern of citing all decisions of the top court. As soon as a Bench led by the CJI assembled to hear urgent mentioning of matters for listing, the CJI announced that all judgments of the top court would have neutral citations.

“We have launched neutral citations. All judgments of this court will have neutral citations,” the CJI said, adding that around 30,000 verdicts of the apex court would have neutral citations.
