The Aurangabad Bench of the Bombay High Court on Friday said that it will hold a virtual hearing as a temporary hearing from 22 March.
The move was handed over to Aurangabad Bar chairperson Surekha Mahajan by a letter to Justice SV Gangapurwala, the senior-most judge of the bench, urging the court to conduct a physical hearing as well as a hearing due to the spike in COVID-19 cases.
Ms. Mahajan told Hindu, “Rapid trials are being conducted outside the court premises for entrants and 19 to 20 people are found positive every day. So many lawyers are already affected by the virus, so we think a virtual hearing is also needed. “
