The Delhi High Court Bar Association has moved the Delhi High Court challenging the Full Court’s decision to form a judges’ committee to examine raising courts’ pecuniary jurisdiction in Delhi from Rs 2 crore to Rs 20 crore.
The Delhi High Court questioned the DHCBA’s decision to abstain from judicial work over proposed pecuniary jurisdiction changes, with Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav observing that lawyers’ strikes ultimately harm litigants and grievances must be raised through proper legal mechanisms.
The Centre told the Delhi High Court that X failed to act despite “actual knowledge” of controversial tweets by Rana Ayyub. It warned that this inaction could lead to loss of safe harbour protection under IT laws.
