I hope court proceedings are successfully conducted through this process,” Md Saifur Rahman, the Supreme Court’s spokesman and special officer of the High Court Division, told bdnews24.com. He confirmed that the e-justice procedure started all over the country in the morning after Chief Justice Syed Mahmud Hossain on Sunday issued directives on conducting court proceedings remotely. “It’s undoubtedly the best step to ensure the people’s legal rights at this moment,” Bangladesh Supreme Court Bar Association President AM Amin Uddin said.

The lawyers have been asked to explain the urgency of virtual hearing in the applications emailed to the related court.
