NEW DELHI: Taking a grim view of “some” states not releasing funds to their respective high courts for the e- courts project, law minister DV Sadananda Gowda has asked them to do so “immediately”. In a letter to all chief ministers, Gowda said Rs 202.23 crore was allocated to states to make it available to high courts to procure hardware for the e- courts project. “... The funds may be released immediately and adequate technical manpower may also be provided for smooth functioning of the project,” Gowda said in his letter.
