District court lawyers to strike work tomorrow

Lawyers practising in the district courts in the city will strike work on Monday to protest against the Delhi governments decision to increase the number of revenue districts from 9 to 11.

The creation of new districts implies that new courts will have to be formed to deal with cases in these districts.

The coordination committee of the All District Bar Associations of Delhi has condemned the move saying heavy expenditure would be incurred to create new courts and appoint more officials.
