In which one of the following cases was the whole hearing conducted by the Trial Court through the Video Conferencing for the first time in India?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

The described proceeding is the Abdul Karim Telgi counterfeit-stamp case decided by Special Judge U D Salvi in January 2006. Contemporary reporting quotes prosecutor Pradeep Gharat identifying the entire trial as conducted by video conferencing. This refers to the complete trial, rather than the earlier judicial acceptance of video-linked witness evidence.

Current law: BNSS section 530 now expressly permits trials, inquiries and listed procedural steps in electronic mode, including audio-video electronic means. Its section 531 preserves covered earlier proceedings. The identity of the historical 2006 case remains unchanged.
