22 Feb: EFFECT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON THE PERIOD OF LIMITATION

The nationwide lockdown imposed by the Government to combat the Covid-19 Pandemic has brought the entire country to a staggering halt. The lockdown has put restrictions on all courts across the country from functioning at their full capacity, however, the courts have devised procedures to hear pressing matters via video conferencing, thereby ensuring that courts and tribunals remain accessible to litigants, at large.
