16 lakh lawyers on strike -Tuesday March 12,2013


Over 16 lakh lawyers across the country, except in the Supreme Court, struck work to condemn the attack on lawyers by the police in Jaipur and Chandigarh in response to the call given by the Bar Council of India (BCI) to abstain from work.

BCI Chairman Manan Kumar Mishra and BCI Spokesperson S. Prabhakaran, in a statement, while thanking the legal fraternity for their cooperation, requested Chief Justice of India Altamas Kabir to intervene and initiate contempt proceedings against the police personnel who entered the court premises and attacked the lawyers.
