Yogeshwaran [googlescholar] => [doi] => [year] => 2025 [month] => November [volume] => 11 [issue] => 11 [file] => fm/jpanel/upload/2025/November/202511-01-024767.pdf [abstract] => Technological‍‌‍‍‌ transformation is a vital component that cannot be removed from the concept of justice that is still updated in the modern era. ODR is a practical plan of action to supplement the litigatory processes that have been traditionally exercised in India, a country of long pendency and territorial diversity. In general, ODR maximizes the use of communication and information technologies to support negotiation, mediation, and arbitration via virtual platforms. This article performs a jurisdiction-wise study on the effectiveness of ODR to conquer India-bound jurisdictional divisions through first of all an analysis of its law, next the liturgical and last court approval. By citing recent researches and policy directions, it puts forward the view that ODR is quite capable to annihilate the problems of territorial jurisdiction and accessibility, and also delays in the procedure, but the achievement of it fully requires more legislative confirmation, unification of procedures and equivalence of the supply of resources. The short EU and Singapore examples show how geospatial integration of ODR is linked to worldwide trends. The article argues that India`s digitally-based justice system, if adequately supported by statutorily coherent reforms and providing access for all, has the potential of making ODR the key of fair, borderless dispute resolution.
