Coordination committees of the Bar Association of all district courts of Delhi have made it clear that the strike of lawyers starting from September 8 will neither be postponed nor withdrawn. This strike is being done by the police on the issue of presenting evidence in the court through online medium from the police stations itself.

According to the information issued by the New Delhi Bar Association (NDBA), there was a meeting of the committee on Saturday. The main issue in the meeting was that policemen should appear directly in courts for testimony, evidence and not online.
