Here are the preliminary views of Naavi on the draft AI Regulations proposed for Judiciary by the Supreme Court and released for public comments.<\/p>\n

Copy of the \u201cRegulations for use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Courts 2026\u201d for public comments<\/a><\/p>\n

The guideline is a comprehensive document with 57 clauses spread over 10 chapters ready to be converted into a formal law on AI usage.<\/p>\n

The chapters are divided into the following:<\/p>\n

Chapter I: Preliminary<\/p>\n

Chapter II:\u00a0 General Principles to Govern adoption, deployment and use of AI systems in Courts.<\/p>\n

Chapter III: Permissible and Prohibited uses<\/p>\n

Chapter IV: Policy Making and Institutional Mechanism<\/p>\n

Chapter V: Oversight, Audits and Incident Management<\/p>\n

Chapter VI: Procurement and Private Sector Engagement<\/p>\n

Chapter VII: Data Protection and Cyber Security<\/p>\n

Chapter VIII: Capacity Building, Training and Best Practices<\/p>\n

Chapter IX: Grievance redressal and Remedies<\/p>\n

Chapter X: Miscellaneous<\/p>\n

It is clear from the above that the guidelines are very comprehensive and can be considered as a law by itself. The draft is one of the most comprehensive judicial AI governance frameworks proposed anywhere in the world. It adopts a distinctly Indian approach: AI is welcomed as an assistant to justice, but never as a substitute for judicial reasoning.<\/strong> The framework balances innovation with constitutional safeguards and places human accountability at the centre of all AI-assisted judicial processes.<\/p>\n

This will now set the platform for the AI regulations in the country. Whatever regulation which the Government was planning now will have to be re-looked in the eyes of this guideline. Though this guideline at present is restricted to Judiciary it is likely to be considered as an indicative “Due Diligence”. To further formalize this due diligence, Naavi\/FDPPI will work on the DGPSI-AI framework and upgrade it to create a version for the non judicial sector compatible to the principles reflected here.<\/p>\n

..The debate continues. Watch out for further discussion here.<\/p>\n
