The decision to resume physical hearing was taken, given a significant decline in the surge of Covid-19 in the national capital. According to the statement, the physical hearings would be considered twice a week. The days are decided as Wednesday and Thursday. In addition, a hybrid model of hearing would be held on other days, as was agreed last year.
The apex court is stirring the revised standard operating procedure (SOP) issued on October 7 2021, after the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic had lessened.
On Monday, the national capital even continued recording a downfall in its daily Covid-19 tally. On Monday, 1,151 infections were recorded during the day, which is less in numbers than the spring of the third wave. The national capital now has 7,885 active cases with a positivity rate of 2.62 per cent.
