Agartala: The Tripura High Court issued a firm ruling protecting elderly litigants. Judges decided that senior citizens who struggle with modern technology cannot face penalties for failing to monitor their court cases online.
Digital systems often create barriers for older generations. The court emphasized that a lack of technical fluency should not lead to legal setbacks or missed deadlines. Justice must remain accessible to everyone, regardless of their ability to use web portals.
The court stated, "Senior citizens who are not technologically savvy cannot be penalized for not tracking their cases online." This decision ensures that the court system accounts for those who cannot keep up with high-tech administrative requirements.
