All lower courts in Maharashtra, Goa and the union territories of Dadra and Nagar Haveli, and Daman and Diu will resume regular physical hearings of all cases from February 1 onwards.
A notification issued by Bombay High Court registrar general S G Dige on Friday stated that all subordinate courts will go back to "regular physical hearings" as they used to "pre-pandemic".
The notice, however, said all courts will have to adhere to the safety norms prescribed by the state government and the Bombay High Court in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since the nationwide lockdown in March last year, the High Court and subordinate courts mentioned above had started hearing a limited number of cases through video-conferencing.
In December last year, some subordinate courts in the state resumed physical hearings, while the High Court started a mix of physical and virtual hearings.
At present, the High Court has been conducting virtual hearings once a week and physical hearings on the remaining working days.
No changes have been notified in the High Court''s hearing arrangements as yet.&nbsp;
