NEW DELHI: The Shahdara Bar Association (Regd.) decided to go on a complete strike from 1st July 2025 at the Karkardooma Courts Complex, Delhi. This strong move came after an urgent meeting held on 28th June 2025 by the Executive Committee of the Association to discuss the recent decision of shifting Digital Courts and N.I. Act cases from Karkardooma Court Complex to Rouse Avenue Courts, Delhi.
The lawyers and litigants are facing several issues due to this shifting plan. The Bar Association considered all the difficulties and concerns raised by its members during the meeting.
After listening to everyone and understanding the ongoing problems, the Executive Committee of the Shahdara Bar Association unanimously took a firm stand.
“It has been unanimously resolved by the Executive Committee of Shahdara Bar Association (Regd.) to oppose the same.”
To show their opposition in a strong and peaceful way, the Association has also decided that all lawyers will stay away from their professional duties on the said date.
“It has been further resolved that as a mark of protest, Advocates shall completely abstain from work w.e.f. 01.07.2025 in Karkardooma Courts, Delhi.”
The notice further appeals to all the lawyers to support this decision and not attend any court proceedings, whether in-person or through online mode.

The notice, signed by Narveer Dabas, Honorary Secretary of Shahdara Bar Association, has also been copied to all judicial officers with a humble request to co-operate and “not to pass any adverse order on the cases listed on 01.07.2025.”
