As per the direction of the Supreme Court, the Central Action Committee (CAC) fighting for establishment of a High Court Bench in western Odisha has decided to resume normalcy in all courts of the region.
Due to the decision of the lawyers for ‘no court, no hearing’, judicial activities had been paralysed for years and people were in the suffering end, due to which the apex court didn’t take it easy.
In an order, the court mentioned that if normal activities in the court are not done properly due to advocates’ noncooperation, how a High Court Bench could be given to them.
Thereafter, the lawyers and the Central Action Committee have changed the mode of agitation and decided to stick to the order of the apex court without putting public to trouble,” said Sambalpur District Bar Association president Bijitendriya Pradhan.
“Giving respect to the order of the apex court, we decide to bring back normalcy in the courts. We are also hopeful of getting justice from the apex court,” said CAC convenor Ashok Dash.
“We further express hope that the Odisha Government will place a full-fledged report before Centre for establishment of a High Court Bench in Western Odisha,” Dash added.
Meanwhile, common people heaved a sigh of relief as they can do their court works like before.
