The Delhi High Court on Monday asked its Rules committee to consider changing rules to allow double-side printing in filing while hearing a petition seeking directions that the high court and all subordinate courts in Delhi must use double-sided pages for all pleadings to save trees, water and conserve the environment. The high court is hearing petition filed by the Centre for Accountability and Systemic Change saying use of double-sided pages would halve the requirement of paper, which in turn would cause savings of trees, water and other natural resources. The petition, filed through advocate Gaurav Pathak, said the High Court of Delhi and all subordinate courts in Delhi use one-sided paper, with double-spaced typing and wide margins, which cause huge paper consumption.
