Demanding action against Mussoorie SDM Swati Bhadauria for allegedly misbehaving with a senior advocate, the lawyers attached to Dehradun Bar Association continued with their boycott of works at Mussoorie Court on Thursday. DBA secretary Anil Gandhi said that the association would soon meet to discuss the next course of action regarding the issue. He warned that the association would intensify its stir across the state if action is taken against Mussoorie SDM.

Expressing anguish over senior advocate SP Tyagi allegedly being humiliated on August 4, the agitated advocates have been demanding immediate written apology from the SDM Bhadauria and action taken against her by the state government.

Sources said that as Tyagi had approached the SDM court regarding the hearing of a matter SDM Bhadauria had allegedly abused him and had ordered the gunner to take him out of the court. However, other advocates present had intervened when the gunner was shoving him out, sources added.
