The Gujarat High Court has taken a unique initiative by launching live broadcast of all court rooms for the first time. Now even the inmates serving jail terms for various offenses can watch the court proceedings sitting inside the jail, not only that, any prisoner can apply for parole, bail and get release from jail. For this, the help of the Legal Aid Center in the Jail will be sought. As a result of this, each prisoner will have the special benefit of knowing what action has been taken in his case. This service has now been launched. On the occasion, Chief Justice of India said, “These initiatives will increase the confidence of the people in the judiciary.” and transparency will be maintained in the High Court.
Sabarmati Central Jail has made arrangements so that any prisoner can now apply for parole, bail and furlough from the jail itself. All the districts of the state have to register an email address as well as a mobile number for this service of Gujarat High Court.
