The Supreme Court on Tuesday pulled up the Centre over delays in providing transcripts related to activist and education reformer Sonam Wangchuk.
During the hearing, the top court reportedly remarked, “We are in the AI era,” questioning why basic documentation and transcripts were not being made available on time.
The court’s sharp observation came while it was hearing a matter connected to Wangchuk, who has been vocal about issues concerning Ladakh, constitutional safeguards and environmental protection.
The judges expressed concern over procedural delays, indicating that in today’s digital age, such administrative inefficiencies are unacceptable.
The remark quickly caught attention, as it reflects the judiciary’s growing emphasis on technology adoption, transparency and accountability in governance.
Sonam Wangchuk, known for his climate activism and advocacy for Sixth Schedule status for Ladakh, has been at the centre of several legal and political debates in recent months.
The case continues, but the court’s message was clear —
in an era driven by artificial intelligence and digital systems,
basic governance cannot run on outdated excuses.
