The Supreme Court decided to remove glass partitions in front of its courtrooms after lawyers complained they affected movement and historic beauty. The move aims to restore the original layout and improve accessibility.
NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday (14th Feb) addressed a petition filed by some lawyers from Karnataka, who are seeking reservation for lawyers from marginalized communities in bar bodies. The Court acknowledged that this was an important matter but also made it clear that while diversity in bar bodies is necessary, they do not want these bodies to become divided along caste or religious lines.
A court here has asked bar bodies to take appropriate action after an advocate “unnecessarily provoked” and tried to hit the defence lawyer during trial proceedings.
