The Puri Bar Association would observe cease-work till Monday. On Friday, although they were present in the association office near the Puri District and Sessions Judge Court, but did not join works.
Also on Saturday, they will abstain from court work and on Monday, they will take next steps, informed general secretary of Puri Bar Association Bibhuti Sankar Tripathy. Notably, the lawyers of the Orissa Hight Court, who were already on a pen-down stir since last month, in their general body meeting on Wednesday had taken a decision to continue strike till September 17. Despite their strike in demand of arrest of police personnel involved in the attack on a lawyer, no action has yet been taken yet. So, before Monday they have scheduled to meet the Governor, the Chief Minister and the Law Minister and discuss the matter. After taking the outcomes of the discussion to the HC Bar Association, they would take their next steps, informed sources.
