It is resolved in a joint meeting of Adhiwakta Sewak Sangh, Indian Association of Lawyers and Democratic Lawyers Association that a P.I.L. be filed against the killing of lawyers in Bihar with a prayer to pay compensation, C.B.I. inquiry and also to declare them “SAHID” as they have been killed during course of the Judicial Duty being officers of the Court.
Secondly the joint forum also condemned the statement of law minister published in different news papers today saying that the Associations and their building are not the subject matter of Govt. therefore, the United Forum and confederation of different Association of lawyers demanded resignation from the law Minister of Bihar. The Association also considered the Attack on Lakhisarai Civil Court and demanded a C.B.I. specially with reference to role of the Local Administration.
