Rajasthan High Court Lawyers' Association Writes To CJ Seeking No-Work Period Till May 16 Over 'Volatile' Cross-Border Situation

Update: In light of subsequent developments, the lawyers association has decided to withdraw its representation for no-work, and will continue functioning as normal from today onwards.

Rajasthan High Court Lawyers' Association (“Association”) has requested the Chief Justice of Rajasthan High Court to declare “No Work” period for a duration of 5 days commencing from May 12, 2025, in light of the “prevailing sensitive and volatile situation in the region, coupled with a sustained blackout and the imminent threat posed by separatist and disruptive forces”.

As per the letter to the Chief Justice, the request has been made keeping in mind the “tense law and order situation”, purely in the interest of caution, to avoid any untoward incident and to ensure the safety and security of all the learned members of the Bar and litigants, Judicial Officers, and all the stakeholders.

Hence, the letter requests the Chief Justice to consider a no-work period from May 12, 2025, to May 16, 2025, for the Rajasthan High Court and its subordinate judiciary.
