Collaborative framework
PUCAR exemplifies collaboration among various organisations:
Agami: Legal expertise in alternate dispute resolution.
eGov Foundation: Technological backbone through the DIGIT’s modular building blocks.
xKDR: Data analysis for identifying bottlenecks.
Samagra: Program management and implementation oversight.
This initiative reflects collaboration in action, with each member of PUCAR bringing a specialised skill set to the table. Agami leads the way with its legal expertise, especially in alternate dispute resolution. eGov Foundation’s DIGIT platform will form the solution’s technological backbone, while xKDR’s data analysis helps pinpoint improvement areas and bottlenecks. Samagra oversees program management and implementation.
PUCAR is looking at reimagining with a clean-sheet design to tackle the issue of overburdened courts. Using an ecosystem approach to drive change, they’re focusing on truly understanding what the courts need and building a scalable solution from scratch. This initiative is gaining momentum, with two states participating in pilot programs, leaving a lot to look forward to in how the solution for India’s legal case backlog will take shape.
