He further directed the Registry/Court Master to not provide the link to video conferencing to any other person or correspondent (media) and directed that the links be provided only to advocates concerned, IO concerned, parties in person in case the petition is filed for quashing and to the persons specifically directed by this Court to join the proceedings.
He further stated clearly that no advocate shall share the link with anyone else except the Senior Advocates or the advocates appearing on their behalf.
