Jammu: High Court of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh, Tashi Rabstan, the High Court today rolled out an initiative of taking up the Judicial matters of UT of Ladakh through virtual mode by allowing the parties and lawyers to appear and plead their cases from Ladakh itself.
In its first kind of initiative, the Court of Justice Tashi Rabstan today heard the matters of UT of Ladakh virtually, in which the lawyers and government representatives who were petitioners and the respondents in the listed cases appeared in virtual mode from Leh and pleaded their cases.
As many as, six (6) matters of the UT of Ladakh were listed today before the Bench, in which the virtual proceedings were conducted.
“In today’s era of technology, conducting the proceedings of a case virtually by connecting different locations on one platform is going to be a big boon in the judicial dispensation. Rolling out such a facility for the people of Ladakh by the High Court is aimed at easing out the sufferings of the litigants and the lawyers who earlier had to physically travel to Jammu and Srinagar for appearing in their respective matters. This will save time besides being financially viable for both parties of the case,” stated Anoop Kumar Sharma, Registrar Computers (IT), High Court of J&K and Ladakh.
“In future, hearing of the matters of Ladakh will be done virtually by allowing the parties to appear and plead their cases from the UT itself and it will be a regular feature,” stated Anoop Kumar Sharma, Registrar Computers (IT), High Court of J&K and Ladakh,” he added.
