By the order dated 16th February 2021 this Court directed the applicant to deposit the amount to the office of the Government Pleader, Nagpur Bench, Nagpur.

3.

The reason behind passing of the order dated 16th February 2021 was to support the office of the Government Pleader in establishing full-fledged Video Conferencing facility so that it would be convenient for the Government Pleader and Assistant Government Pleaders to take instructions from the officers at distant places, specially taking into consideration the COVID-19 situation in the area of operation of Nagpur Bench of the Bombay High Court .
