Vadodara | Sunday | 27th May, 2018

Summary:

The bar association had allowed some lawyers to offer prayers during the month of Ramzan.In his letter, the Principal district judge J C Doshi has stated that the court is secular and no religious practices should be allowed there. “In a government building such religious activities cannot be performed. But since the order has come from the highest authority, we will obey it,” said advocate Kedar Biniwale, secretary of BBA. It is also necessary to maintain the decorum of the court building. Our concern was that a lawyer may fall ill if he travelled in such heat while fasting therefore we asked for permission..
