New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday announced the launch of “Jan Soochna Seva”, a new Hindi public information service aimed at making judicial information easier to understand and access.
The service will provide simplified Hindi summaries of selected important judgments and orders. It will also feature Hindi audio and video bulletins of around 15 to 30 minutes.
The initiative is intended to help ordinary citizens, litigants and especially persons with disabilities understand significant court decisions, their implications and subsequent proceedings in a familiar language.
The Supreme Court said, “This initiative is being launched for the convenience of ordinary citizens, litigants, and especially persons with disabilities, enabling them to easily understand significant judgments, their implications, and subsequent proceedings in a language familiar to them.”
The service will initially be available in Hindi, while efforts will soon begin to introduce it in other Indian languages in phases.
The statement said the initiative will help people across different linguistic regions access concise and easy-to-understand information about significant Supreme Court judgments in their own languages.
