The Courts are generally open courts and anyone can watch the proceedings of the court except in cases where there are special provisions for in camera proceedings. However, the persons whose presence may adversely affect the proceedings of a case, may be asked by the court to remain outside the courtroom during the proceedings of that particular case.
