In order to minimise the risk of COVID-19 spread for Trial Court Judges, the Karnataka High Court has set up a specially designed remand court with transparent partitions, where arrested persons or undertrial prisoners can be produced physically.

The special remand court has been set up at Guru Nanak Bhavan in Vasanth Nagar, which is over a kilometre away from the Karnataka High Court.
