Rajasthan High Court

What Rajasthan High Court does

The Rajasthan High Court (formally, High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan, राजस्थान उच्च न्यायालय) is the highest judicial authority in the state of Rajasthan, India, constitutionally established under Article 214 of the Constitution of India and inaugurated on August 29, 1949. It exercises original, appellate, and supervisory jurisdiction over civil, criminal, constitutional, commercial, and writ matters across the entire state through its principal seat at Jodhpur and a permanent bench at Jaipur (established December 8, 1976, covering 15 eastern Rajasthan districts). With a sanctioned judicial strength of 50 judges, the court serves four primary stakeholder groups: litigants and citizens seeking dispute resolution, advocates and legal practitioners appearing before the court, subordinate courts across 33 districts under its supervisory jurisdiction, and state police and law enforcement agencies presenting criminal matters. As of the latest available pendency data shown on its Virtual Justice Clock, the court is managing 164,450 civil cases, 186,806 criminal cases, and 331,690 writ petitions across both Jodhpur and Jaipur benches.

The court's technology infrastructure is built around India's national e-Courts Mission Mode Project and includes an Android mobile application, an e-Filing Portal, an e-Pay Portal for court fees and fines, an e-True Copy system with SSO authentication, the RHC e-Portal for intra-court registry operations, the eLR-Raj electronic legal records portal, specialized portals for Commercial Court and Juvenile Justice Board cases, and a Leave Management System. Case management runs on CIS 3.0 (Case Information System version 3.0) deployed across both benches. Transparency is delivered through the Virtual Justice Clock displaying real-time pendency statistics and integration with the National Judicial Data Grid (NJDG). The SULAH WhatsApp chatbot (+91-7023103132) enables advocates and parties to refer cases for mediation. Hosting, infrastructure, and standards are provided by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) and the Supreme Court's e-Committee, with coordination on legal aid handled through NALSA and the Rajasthan State Legal Services Authority.

As a constitutional body, the Rajasthan High Court does not generate independent revenue and provides all judicial services free of charge to litigants under constitutional guarantees of access to justice. It is funded entirely through budgetary allocations from the State Government of Rajasthan, with the Governor holding a constitutional role in judicial appointments. There is no pricing model, sales motion, or revenue generation; service delivery is direct through the two physical benches, 33 subordinate districts, and digital portals accessible via hcraj.nic.in. Public communication is limited to statutory notifications, daily cause lists, reportable judgments, the Virtual Justice Clock, and an official Telegram channel (t.me/hcrajtc) — none of which constitutes commercial marketing activity.
