The bench observed that it is aware of the opinion of Bar, and in fact, it has been hearing it for past nine months. The plea has been filed by practicing lawyers - Kartik Nayar, Nancy Roy, Sachit Jolly and Amit Bhagat -- contended to continue with virtual hearing procedure and cited they have been appearing before the courts through virtual mode on a daily basis amid the pandemic.
