Abstract

Whole world is under the grip of corona virus. Social distancing is the most important step to prevent the transmission of the corona virus. Countries have announced lock downs and shut downs to achieve social distancing. “Work from home” is new normal working style. The apex court and High Courts have adopted various measures to minimise the physical presence of lawyers, parties, court staff and media in courts across the country and to ensure the continued administration of justice. The present paper examines the role of information technology in achieving the social distancing measures taken by Courts in India.
