The Supreme Court (SC) yesterday signed an agreement with a private service provider, Inforev Ltd, in its initiative to make case information more accessible to the litigants.
Under the new service, anyone with a mobile phone can learn the latest status of their case by sending the case number to the designated SC SMS hotline at 2233.
Chief Justice ABM Khairul Haque, UNDP Country Director Stefan Priesner, and judges of both divisions of the SC were present at the signing ceremony.
The latest initiative of the apex court aims at helping reduce case backlogs as well as enhancing efficiency and transparency in the delivery of justice as a public service.
