Chapter 9 examines the foundational pillars essential for the successful implementation of smart courts: inclusivity, transparency and judicial independence. These pillars collectively aim to create a fair, effective and equitable justice system that serves all members of society. Inclusivity ensures that all individuals, regardless of socio-economic status, race, gender or other characteristics, have equal access to justice. Transparency involves making judicial processes open and understandable, fostering public trust and accountability. Judicial independence protects judges from external pressures, ensuring decisions are based solely on law and facts. The chapter explores how these pillars are interconnected and mutually reinforcing, with inclusivity promoting diverse representation, transparency fostering accountability and judicial independence supporting impartiality. It also addresses the challenges posed by technology, such as the digital divide, privacy concerns and potential threats to judicial independence. The chapter concludes by emphasizing the need for a balanced approach that leverages technology while upholding the core values of justice, ensuring that smart courts enhance access to justice without compromising fairness, equality and the rule of law.
