Top court has been hearing cases through video-conferencing since March last year
The Supreme Court has issued fresh standard operating procedures to accord final hearing of cases in physical mode from September 1, and will employ a hybrid option from Tuesday to Thursday amid strict observance of COVID-appropriate norms. The top court has been hearing cases through video-conferencing since March last year due to the pandemic and several bar bodies and lawyers have been demanding that physical hearings should resume immediately. The SOP, issued by the Secretary General on Saturday, made it clear that the courts would keep hearing miscellaneous cases through virtual mode on Mondays and Fridays.More Related News
