Justice Gita Gopi of the Gujarat High Court voices concern over how advocates treat poor litigants in the State and especially in Ahmedabad.

J Gopi: I am happy that now foreign lawyers are coming to India. At least they will treat litigants better.

Then I am sure, you will call litigants to your offices, offer not only tea but even food. You will do much more things due to the competitions… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
