The High Court had then set up a committee headed by the Registrar General of the High Court and comprising Registrars of NCLT and NCLAT, four representatives from the NCLT Bar Association and NCLAT Bar Association, one nominee each from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of Urban Development and CISF to address the problems of restricted entry and limited space.
