Islamabad High Court Chief Justice Athar Minallah has taken revolutionary steps by deciding to live stream the courtroom’s proceedings.

General public will be likely to watch live coverage of courtroom’s activities on its website by the next month.

The required system has been installed for the live stream and a test run has already been launched.

Now in Pakistan like other advanced countries, the judicial proceedings will be live-streamed.

Judges as well as lawyers will be able to join the court’s proceedings through video link and participate ongoing hearings.

The exemplary step taken by Islamabad High Court Chief Justice Athar Minallah will be proved a herald for the promotion of E-court in days to come in Pakistan.

Former Attorney General for Pakistan Irfan Qadir highly appreciated the measure of the IHC chief minister for development of live-streaming proceedings in the country.

Through this step, people will be able to know what proceedings are going on in courts, what arguments lawyers are rendering, what point of views litigants have, he observed.

Qadir further said that general public will come to know about the defence of their rights and how they could acquire justice.

More than it, the masses will have complete knowledge and information that who are hindering in dispensing justice and establishing rule of law in the country, the former attorney general maintained.
