Each time lawyers call a strike or hold an election the awam have to suffer a delay in the judicial process. Why can the lawyers not hold elections on Sundays or other holidays? Why can they not demonstrate their protest by wearing arm bands and continue to work? The lawyers owe at least consideration of these ideas to their clients. Will they do it?
