Today, On 9th October, Gujarat High Court Chief Justice Sunita Agarwal modified the SOP after lawyers raised concerns, stressing that “bar and bench must work together, not bang each other,” urging unity and cooperation for the smooth functioning of the court system.
The Madhya Pradesh High Court has directed an inquiry into the alleged contempt of court by advocate Madan Singh, rejecting his apology and emphasizing the need to safeguard the court’s dignity.
