Lawyer moves Delhi High Court challenging Bar Council of Delhi’s recent notification making the filing of Aadhar Card and Voter ID bearing address of Delhi or NCR mandatory for future enrolments of lawyers.

#Lawyer #DelhiHighCourt #BarCouncilOfDelhi Image
The plea has been filed by Advocate Rajani Kumar, a law graduate from Delhi University and resident of Bihar. The grievance is that the notification is arbitrary, discriminatory and against the provisions of Advocates Act.
Justice Prathiba M Singh has asked the petitioner lawyer to implead the Bar Council of India in the plea and listed it for hearing on May 02.

Justice Singh has asked the parties to assist the court on the next date of hearing as to whether the domicile requirement is there in State Bar Councils and in which States the same is imposed.

Supreme Court will hear plea moved by owners of Ansal Theatres seeking the custody of the theatre and its premises in connection with the Uphaar fire tragedy that happened in 1997.

#SupremeCourtofIndia Image
CBI counsel: Let me clear the confusion. I was not briefed yesterday. Nobody informed the CBI from the Court.

May I take 2 mins to give a background? This is the Uphaar Fire Tragedy. They were 59 deaths on the balcony. There were 3 exits
Counsel: Because of the change in the seating plan, the right hand exit .....

Bench: Is there a map?

Counsel shows a site plan: Nobody in the main hall died. People (on the balcony) didn't die because of the fire but because of asphyxia - carbon monoxide poisoning.
