Other lawyers back HC Bar strike

Saturday, 19 October 2019 | PNS | CUTTACK

Executive members of at least 93 bar associations in the State on Friday threw their weight behind the cause of the Orissa High Court Bar Association, which is on a strike demanding immediate fulfilment of vacant positions of judges and magistrates across the State and also protesting against elevation of a New Delhi-based Odia lawyer as a judge of the Orissa High Court.

The lawyers of the city have been boycotting their courts, including the High Court, ever since the courts reopened on Monday after the Puja vacation.

The lawyers have decided to continue their protest till Monday, the day on which the Full Bench of the High Court is scheduled to meet again to adjudicate over the contempt petitions arising out of frequent lawyers’ strikes in the State.
