CJI BR Gavai Announces Free Public Wi-Fi Across Entire Supreme Court Main Building

In a move aimed at strengthening the Supreme Court's digital infrastructure and improving accessibility for all court users, Chief Justice of India BR Gavai on Friday announced the expansion of free public Wi-Fi across the entire main building of the Supreme Court of India. Until now, the Wi-Fi facility was available only within the courtrooms and few adjoining areas.

“I wish to inform the Bar that with the aim of strengthening the digital infrastructure and to provide Wi-Fi connectivity to lawyers, law officers, litigants and court officers within the Court premises, the facility of free public Wi-Fi, which was earlier limited to courtrooms and a few adjoining areas, has now been extended to cover the entire precincts of the main building of the Supreme Court of India,” the Chief Justice said.

He further added that lawyers and visitors can now seamlessly access free internet from any part of the main building through a simple authentication process. “I am hopeful that this simple measure will benefit the learned members of the Bar as well as the litigants who come to the Court,” the CJI remarked.
