Telangana Andhra Pradesh lawyers boycotted lower courts in Telangana to protest prosecution of 24 lawyers who had led an agitation in the High Court of Andhra Pradesh.
The 24 lawyers were agitating for a 42 per cent quota for Telangana advocates in the posts of government pleader, public prosecutor, and assistant public prosecutor.
The boycott encompassed lower courts in eight districts and the Secunderabad metropolitan courts, while there was slogan shouting in the high court premises and copies of the government order for prosecution of the lawyers were burnt. [The Hindu]
