Access, Management and Procedural Intervention-Explorations of Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Judicial Backlog in Indian Judiciary

Author(s) Dr. Shagufta, Susmitha Koritepati

Abstract The aim of this study is to discuss the problem of case pendency in the judicial system of India that, as of late 2025, violates the right to speedy trial guaranteed by Article 21 of the Constitution due to the number of pending cases exceeding 53 million across the country [1]. As per the data provided by the National Judicial Data Grid, some 88 percent of this pendency falls on subordinate courts, namely district and taluka courts [2, 3]. The factors identified by the study causing delay include the permanent lack of judges to the extent of approximately 35 percent on average, procedural failure in the form of frequent adjournments and counsels' absences, and administrative burden, with the Government being the biggest litigant in almost 46 percent of court cases [4, 5].
The comparative analysis of international judicial artificial intelligence systems like COMPAS of the USA, VICTOR of Brazil, and PROMETEA of Argentina reveals that the key advantage of artificial intelligence is the role of an augmentative nonjudgmental tool used in high volume of appeals triage and document creation [6, 7]. In turn, the digital infrastructure of India, based on the National Judicial Data Grid and e-Courts Phase 3, together with already existing software for legal research and translation in the Supreme Court, creates a solid ground for using of artificial intelligence; however, this process will require rigorous legal governance. In particular, such governance should take care of the threat of algorithmic bias and human supervision, which has been emphasized recently in the guidelines of the Kerala High Court [8].
