Court Operations Halted Amidst Lawyers’ Agitation Over Park Demolition
Lawyers in Jamshedpur have halted court operations following the proposed conversion of a park into a server room, leading to ongoing discussions with the Chief Justice.
JAMSHEDPUR – Lawyers in Jamshedpur have disrupted judicial operations, demonstrating against the planned transformation of a park within the court premises into a server room, prompting ongoing discussions with the Chief Justice.
A park, which had been a leisure spot for the lawyers, was recently slated for demolition to make way for a server room, sparking initial protests.
The local bar has been engaged in talks with the judiciary since the announcement, seeking to preserve the park.
Further tensions flared when two sheds were brought over on Wednesday evening and kept in front of the bar building, aggravating the legal community.
The situation intensified Thursday morning with lawyers demonstrating vigorously, leading to a standstill in judicial activities.
Lawyers argue the removal of the park will lead to congestion in the court area, impacting their daily routines.
Currently, the dialogue between the protesting lawyers and the judiciary is ongoing, with efforts to reach a resolution.
