HC Advocates Call for Boycott of Justice Bhattacharya's Bench
The Telangana High Court's lawyers are upset with a judge named Justice Bhattacharya.
They say she has been rude to them and charging high costs in cases.
Because of this, the lawyers have decided to stop going to her courtroom starting June 30th.
They also asked the head judge to not give her any work and plan to ask the top judges in the country to move her to a different court.
They are doing this because they believe she has treated them unfairly.
Telangana High Court Advocates' Association (THCAA) called for a boycott of Justice Moushumi Bhattacharya's bench.
The boycott starts June 30th until action is taken against the judge.
THCAA alleges Justice Bhattacharya 'misbehaved' with advocates and imposed heavy costs.
Resolutions include boycotting her court, requesting no work allocation, and seeking her transfer.
The association plans to address the CJI and SC Collegium regarding the judge's conduct.
