Published 31 May, 2020 12:04am

The district courts in Punjab will work regularly from June 1 (Monday) under the Covid-19 pandemic related guidelines and SOPs announced by the government.
A circular issued by the Lahore High Court Saturday directed all District & Sessions Judges (D&SJs) of the province to make sure the regular working of all the courts and presence of all the judicial officers in their respective district from Monday.
The LHC also directed the D&SJs to ensure strict observance of the guidelines and SOPs issued by the government to cope with the pandemic.
Under the guidelines, the D&SJs shall make sure provision of sanitizers or walk through sanitizing gates at entry points of courts.
The presiding officers, officials, lawyers, and parties must wear face mask. No one should be allowed to enter the court premises/rooms or any attached offices without wearing a mask and gloves. On the call of a case, only those advocates (associating one junior with them, if so required) who have to appear to argue or attend a particular case in a court shall enter courtrooms unless the presence of the parties in person and that of the witnesses is so desired by the courts. Every court shall try to fix the time of taking up each case to ensure the social distancing.
The D&SJs will make sure that all instructions issued by the LHC as well as provincial government with regard to Corona virus pandemic are given effect in letter and spirit.
