Live streaming of Constitution Bench Hearings: A Step closer to e-Governance and Justice

Tóm tắt

The live streaming of Constitution Bench hearings is a research topic that explores
the feasibility and potential benefits of broadcasting the proceedings of the highest judicial
forum in India. The Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court of India is responsible for
interpreting the country's constitution and delivering landmark judgments that shape the legal
landscape. However, the lack of transparency and accessibility in the functioning of the
judiciary has been a longstanding concern in India. This research aims to investigate the
feasibility of live-streaming Constitution Bench hearings to enhance transparency,
accountability, and public participation in the judicial process. The study examines the legal
and technological challenges associated with live streaming and the potential benefits and
drawbacks of the practice. By analyzing the experiences of other countries that have
implemented live streaming of court proceedings, the study aims to provide policy
recommendations and suggest a roadmap for implementing live streaming in India. Ultimately,
the research seeks to contribute to the ongoing discourse on judicial reforms and the
democratization of the Indian judiciary.
