Work in Delhi courts will also be stalled on Thursday (August 28). The strike of lawyers will continue on the sixth day. The lawyer is protesting against the notification of Delhi LG, in which the police have been allowed to present evidence from the police stations in the courts. The Delhi Bar Association has issued a notice on Wednesday (August 27) and announced to continue the strike. It says that no lawyer will participate in the proceedings in the court through physical or video conferencing.

Ordinance completely illegal- Delhi Bar Association

Tarun Rana, secretary of Delhi Bar Association, said on Wednesday that the ordinance is absolutely illegal and anti -people ordinance. We are not ready to accept it in any way. This is against the concept of fair and free trial.

‘Battle of lawyers for coming generations’

Further, he said that there was a lot of assurances. But we have decided that only assurance will not work. Until this ordinance is stopped, our strike will not stop. The circular of the Home Secretary of the Government of India on 15 July 2024, we want it to be followed literally. The fight for the lawyers of Delhi is for every person who is undergoing a criminal case. This ordinance is a violation of the fundamental rights they get from the Constitution. This battle that Delhi’s lawyers are fighting is for the coming generation.

Lawyers’ strike continues from 22 August

Please tell that from August 22, Delhi’s lawyers are completely absent from work. Earlier on Tuesday, Tarun Rana said that no concrete result was found in the meeting held with the Chief Minister of Delhi and other officials. Rana had said that it has also been decided that the government prosecutors and police officers including Naib courts appearing on behalf of the ED and CBI will not be allowed to appear in the courts.
