In News 
  • Chief Justice of India N V Ramana launched FASTER (Fast and Secured Transmission of Electronic Records) — a digital platform to communicate interim orders, stay orders, bail orders etc., of the Supreme Court to authorities concerned through a secured electronic communication channel.
About FASTER 
  • The FASTER system is developed on war footing by the Registry in collaboration with the National Informatics Centre.
  • To reach all districts of India through this system, so far 73 nodal officers have been nominated at various levels.
  • All nodal officers have been connected through a specific Judicial Communication Network (JCN) by creating a secured pathway.
  • A total of 1,887 e-mail IDs have been created for this system across the country and a FASTER cell has been established in the Registry of the Supreme Court
  • The cell will transmit digitally signed record of proceedings or orders related to bail and release passed by the court to the nodal officers and duty holders concerned through email.
  • As part of the second phase of the project, the SC would be able to transmit all records through this system dispensing altogether with the need to share hard copies.
