Decided On January 17, 2017
Smt. Kalawati Appellant
V/S
STATE OF U.P. Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Heard learned counsel for the petitioner.

(2.) This is a writ petition preferred in peculiar circumstances which is not uncommon these days when the work of Courts are being paralysed on account of the Lawyers or the Bar Associations giving a call for strike. To appreciate the controversy we extract here-in-under Para -12 of the writ petition:-

(3.) This averment has been made by the litigant on the strength of a notice of the District Bar Association, Baharaich informing that in the meeting of the general body on 10.01.2017 it has been decided to abstain from judicial work w.e.f. 11.01.2017 on account of establishment of Courts at Nanpara and Mahsi and the piloting of the project of Gram Nyayalaya. Learned counsel states that the strike has been continued thereafter with no call to withdraw the same.
