The Madhya Pradesh government has pioneered the use of digital communication for issuing legal summons and warrants, becoming India's first state to allow this. Through WhatsApp, e-mail, and text messages, this new process aims to streamline judicial proceedings, reduce government expenditure, and improve access to justice in rural areas. The initiative, which follows extensive preparation, including the development of the WhatsApp app and training of judicial officers, is expected to expedite legal processes and enhance efficiency in the judicial system.
