New Delhi: Four judges of the Supreme Court have tested positive for the virus, the Bar and Bench reported.
Notably, Chief Justice of India N V Ramana on Thursday precautionarily mandated judges to conduct virtual hearings from their residence offices after two judges and several court staff were found infected.
