New Delhi, Nov 4 (NationPress) The Coordination Committee of All District Courts Bar Associations of Delhi has declared a total strike on November 6 in response to the unjust and unlawful actions of the Gurgaon Special Task Force (STF), which allegedly implicated a Delhi-based lawyer in a murder case.

An urgent meeting was held at the Patiala House Courts complex to address the situation involving Advocate Vikram Singh, who has been wrongfully accused simply for having represented a co-accused in the case.

In a statement released following the meeting, the Committee described this event as a blatant and intentional assault on the autonomy of the legal profession, aimed at intimidating lawyers from fulfilling their professional responsibilities freely.

V.K. Singh, Chairman of the Delhi District Courts Bar Associations, along with Secretary Anil Kr Basoya, noted that the decision to halt work was unanimous, intended to convey a decisive message that such overreaching actions against legal practitioners will not be accepted.

The circular emphasized that such behavior from police authorities not only jeopardizes the rule of law but also erodes the trust of the broader legal community.

Moreover, the Coordination Committee firmly supports Advocate Vikram Singh and demands the immediate retraction of the case and all associated proceedings.

The circular urged all District Court Bar Associations in Delhi to ensure a complete cessation of court activities on Thursday.

It concluded by requesting all District Court Bar Associations of Delhi to ensure full member participation in the strike and to abstain from court activities on that day. The Committee pledged to take all necessary actions to protect the rights and professional independence of advocates.
