The notification reads as under,
"Advocates, Parties-in-person, litigants and all concerned are hereby informed that with a view to provide the benefit and option of virtual access to the High Court to all these stakeholders on one day of the week, necessary facilities for participating in hearings in all the Courts on virtual/hybrid modes will be available until further notice, on all Fridays commencing from 03.03.2023. This is an additional facility, apart from the vc-link, already available at request on any day."
