CJI: We will pass some broad orders.. we will consider what Mr. Manan Kumar is saying..

Petitioner: What happened in MP, the virtual courts were stopped in one month of its inauguration.
CJI: All CJs have to now learn that technology is the way forward. They have to be on board. This is why we have made E-SCR free of charge. IIT Madras is helping us out.
CJI: You tell us what we should do, to make this available to all lawyers across the country and please ensure that nobody will be left out.
