Peti-Chain – Blockchain Based Judicial Petition Filing System

The Petition-filing process in the Indian Judicial System is an integral part of the Indian Judiciary. The digital process of petition filing is very slow and cumbersome. Moreover, it is just dependent on the central system. This makes the overall system very vulnerable in terms of digital security and preservation of old records. This problem can be solved by making the whole system decentralized. By making use of the Blockchain technology, the petition-filing system would become more secure and easier to access. This process would also help the overall system by making the whole petition-filing process faster, for both the courts and the petition-filers. In this paper, we present a unique way of implementing the use of decentralized blockchain systems in the context of digital petition-filing.
