In the instant case, the Court noted that on accessing the respective websites of the labour courts and the CGIT, data relating to the former are accessible on the eCourts India website. However, information on CGIT cases was not.
Justice Singh thus called for a status report on the appointments and number of benches which are currently functioning at the CGIT. The report shall also contain the following details:
(i) Staffing in the CGIT; whether any further staff and infrastructure is required to handle the current backlog of cases;
(ii) Whether the Central government has contemplated integration of CGIT website with eCourts India website/NJDG and whether there are any proposals to this effect, which are pending;
(iii) The timeline within which all the data relating to the pendency before the CGIT, order sheets and judgments of the CGIT are to be uploaded on its own website.
