The striking lawyers of the Orissa High Court on Wednesday decided to continue boycotting of court activities till Friday and call upon other bar associations in the city to follow suit.
The HC lawyers are on strike since Tuesday afternoon expressing solidarity with their SAT bar colleagues, who are protesting against the State government’s decision to abolish all benches of State Administrative Tribunal (SAT).
In its general body meeting here on the day, the High Court Bar Association decided to form a steering committee to resolve the ongoing impasse after discussing with the government. Following a cabinet approval, the State Government has already intimated the Union Government to abolish the SAT.
