Supreme Court Introduces Fuel-Saving Measures Amid Global Crisis

The Supreme Court of India has implemented immediate administrative changes to support national fuel conservation efforts following the US-Iran conflict.

According to a circular issued by Secretary General Bharat Parashar, all matters listed on miscellaneous days, Mondays and Fridays, will now be heard exclusively via video-conferencing.

Additionally, Supreme Court judges have unanimously resolved to adopt car-pooling arrangements. The Registry will also allow up to 50 percent of its staff to work from home for two days a week, ensuring essential services remain uninterrupted through weekly rosters.

These measures follow a Union Government's Directive aimed at mitigating the impact of the ongoing global fuel crisis.
