With Telangana advocates mounting pressure on the Centre for speedy bifurcation of the HC in the last few weeks, the clamour for separate HC is growing bigger in A.P too.
Leaders of the State-level Joint Action Committee (JAC) of advocates will meet Union Minister of Law and Justice D.V. Sadananda Gowda in New Delhi on March 25 to press for the establishment of High Court (HC) in AP.
They are opposing even the temporary location of separate HC in Hyderabad with their Telangana counterparts not showing inclination to share common premises .
The JAC is insisting that the HC should be set up at a convenient place in the new State, bifurcating the existing High Court of Judicature in Hyderabad without further delay.
The Bezawada and Guntur Bar Associations have called for boycott of courts from March 23, but have resolved to not cause major disruption to court proceedings that will put the litigants to trouble.
Mr. Sadananda Gowda has indicated that the process of bifurcation of HC is in advanced stage.
“The advocates from A.P want establishment of the High Court in the new State as there is no point in bifurcating the court and retaining A.P’s own High Court in Hyderabad,” Bezawada Bar Association (BBA) president S. Durga Srinivasa Rao told The Hindu.
