  • There is no brick & mortar building of the court. 
  • In a trial by Virtual Court, neither litigant shall come to the court nor will the Judge have to sit physically in the court to adjudicate the case. 
  • The communication may only be in electronic form and the sentencing and further payment of fine or compensation will also be online. 
  • In this court, only a single process is allowed and there can be no argument. 
  • It may be proactive admission of guilt by the accused or proactive compliance of the cause by the defendant on receipt of the summons in electronic form. 
  • On payment of Fine, such matters may be treated as disposed off. 
  • Citizens neither  have to wait in lines in courts nor have to confront a Traffic Policeman. 

Significance of the virtual court

  • It will increase productivity of citizens as well as judicial officers.
  • It will promote greater accountability and less corruption in the Traffic Police Department thus bettering the lives of people.
  • For instance, in Assam due to Virtual Court the work of 10 judges will be done by only a single judge thus sparing 9 Judges for judicial work.
