The Hindu
The Karnataka High Court has on Friday decided to partially relax prohibition on the entry of litigants into the premises of its principal bench in Bengaluru from February 22 by permitting only those litigants having a certificate to enter from their advocates in the prescribed form.
The litigants, who are arguing cases on their own, will have to produce a hard or soft copy of their petition at the entrance, through Gate Number 5, to enter the court premises but they need to seek an appointment from the Registrar (Judicial) by email to enter the court premises to carry out rectifications in the petitions, stated a new Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) issued by the High Court by withdrawing earlier SOPs issued in the light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
