The registrar general Dhananjay Chaturvedi informed that this centre will help people in multiple ways. He said that people can now easily know about the facilities available digitally under the e-Court programme. Litigants and defendants will also be aware of the updated status of the cases, leaves of judges and dates of hearings.

He said that people can also get information about seeking free legal services from District Legal Services Authority (DLSA), State Legal Services Authority (SLSA) and Supreme Court Legal Services Committee through the centre.
