520 _aAdministration of justice is the most significant attribute of any democratic state. It is very crucial because it determines the quality of the life of its citizens. It is also pivotal to our democratic system in a way that it prevents crime, protects the citizens, provides rehabilitation services, and ensures equal justice for everyone. The crisis of Covid-19 pandemic hit our lives and almost every sphere has been digitized including the education sector, health sector, professional and corporate offices, and the judiciary system remains no exception. In the Judiciary, cases were started to be administered on the online platform or through virtual courts. It is to be noted that the Indian Judiciary is highly under stress due to the rising pendency of cases, and inadequate infrastructure. In the present paper, the most common issue of judicial stress including the pendency of cases will be discussed in the context of how virtual courts can help in reducing the judicial stress in the lower judiciary system.- Reproduced
