Lawyers’ strike likely this week

Mumbai: Lawyers in the state are likely to be on strike on July 11 and 12 as both lawyers’ associations, including Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa, are supporting the strike call by the Bar Council of India to oppose the proposed higher education and research Bill, which seeks to divest the elected, statutory lawyers’ body of its jurisdiction over legal education.
