Complying with the Punjab and Haryana High Court’s orders, installation of LED screens has begun at the district courts here. The High Court had ordered all courts in Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh to install these screens and use video-conferencing facility. Earlier this year, the Supreme Court had also asked all lower courts to do so.
The Supreme Court had said video-conferencing facility in divorce; custody and other matrimonial cases when the estranged couples live in different cities would help in speedy disposal of cases. The screens are being put up in the courts as of now and the process is expected to be completed by next week.
