Lawyers protest against shifting of courts New Delhi, April 13 A delegation of lawyers met the Administrative Committee of the high court headed by Chief Justice B. C. Patel and submitted a memorandum to him. The talks in this regard remained inconclusive as Delhi Bar Association (DBA) members objected to the presence of some lawyers from the Shahdara Bar Association. The demonstration organised by the DBA was also supported by the New Delhi Bar Association and the Delhi High Court Bar Association. Former Delhi Bar Council Member Jagdev said the Chief Justice should discuss the issue with lawyers thoroughly before taking any decision on issues concerning lawyers. The courts are to be transferred from Tis Hazari to the newly constructed Rohini Court Complex and transfer of civil cases from Tis Hazari to Karkardooma courts. Delhi High Court Registrar-General V. B. Gupta had yesterday clarified that no decision had been taken so far on these issues and questioned the rationale behind the decision to organise a protest demonstration.
