Supreme Court directs Allahabad HC to take immediate action on repeated strikes by Noida lawyers

Supreme Court directs Allahabad HC to take immediate action on repeated strikes by Noida lawyers The Supreme Court on Thursday took note of repeated strike calls by the Noida's Gautam Buddha Nagar Bar Association and directed the district judiciary to compile details of such court boycotts/ strikes resorted to by the bar. A Bench of Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi set out a mechanism to assess the scale of disruption and trigger disciplinary action and directed the district judiciary and the Allahabad High Court to immediately act on the issue. “We direct District and Sessions Judge of GB Nagar to send details of days when bar members abstained from work due to such resolutions to the Registrar General of the High Court. After report is received, immediate action should be taken in terms of our order. We request the committee (of the High Court) to examine the report of district judge and take immediate action,” the Court said in its order. The directions were initiated to enforce its earlier ban on lawyers’ strikes. The Court noted that the Gautam Buddha Nagar Bar Association had passed repeated resolutions calling for abstention from work. Such abstentions are already prohibited under an earlier ruling, CJI Kant said. “This court had passed a judgment in December 2024 restraining the district bar associations from abstaining from work.” The Court recorded that the issue was not an isolated one but involved repeated violations. “The President of Gautam Buddha Nagar Bar Association has passed repeated resolutions abstaining from work,” observed the Court. The Court was also informed that a three-member committee had been constituted by the Allahabad High Court to examine the issue, but indicated that further action was necessary in light of continued disruptions.

Jammu & Kashmir HC warns litigants, lawyers not to make reckless allegations against judges

Jammu & Kashmir HC warns litigants, lawyers not to make reckless allegations against judges The High Court of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh on Wednesday warned lawyers and litigants against making baseless, scandalous allegations against judicial officers [Assadullah Bhat & Ors v. Justice Wasim Sadiq Nargal said that such tendencies have to be curbed with an firm hand. The judge made the observation while ordering some litigants to tender an unconditional apology for making allegations of bias against two judicial officers without any basis. The Court observed that such reckless allegations do not only affect the judges but also constitute an affront to the dignity of, independence and the institutional integrity of the judiciary. The sanctity of judicial proceedings cannot be permitted to be sullied by such reckless pleadings which, under the guise of advocacy, seek to malign the judicial process, it said. "To permit such allegations to gain publicity, in the absence of cogent and credible material, would have a chilling effect on the judicial process and imperil the dignity of the institution itself," the Court added. The Court underscored that judicial officers cannot be expected to function with independence and fearlessness if they are subjected to such unfounded aspersions about their character and conduct. Allowing such allegations to circulate without credible material would have a chilling effect on the judicial process, it said.
