Lawyers to boycott judicial work on June 9 in protest against digital courts shift
Lawyers across Delhi's district courts will abstain from all judicial works including court proceedings on June 9 in protest against the relocation of all digital courts to the Rouse Avenue Court complex. The move comes after Delhi High Court Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya on Friday inaugurated 34 digital courts, aimed at reducing paperwork and improving speed as well as efficiency. The courts are dedicated to handling cases under the Negotiable Instruments Act, which mostly deals with cheque bounce cases. These digital courts include nine from Dwarka, seven from Tis Hazari, six from Saket, five from Karkardooma Court, four from Rohini and three from Patiala House. In what it described as 'unrest' among the lawyers, the Coordination Committee of all districts court bar associations of Delhi passed a resolution on Friday. 'Coordination Committee has resolved to abstain from judicial work in all Delhi District Courts on Monday, June 9, 2025,' stated the circular. The Aam Aadmi Party government approved the construction of a new district court complex at Rouse Avenue in August 2024 at an estimated cost of ₹427 crore, aimed at streamlining judicial processes and improving accessibility.

34 digital courts shifted: Delhi's lower court lawyers to abstain from work on Monday
Lawyers across Delhi's lower courts have decided to abstain from work on Monday following a decision to shift judges of 34 digital NI Act (Negotiable Instruments Act) courtrooms — which hear cheque bounce cases — across six court complexes in the capital to the Rouse Avenue court complex. Court staff (readers, ahlmads and stenographers) will continue to operate from their respective districts. 'In an emergent meeting, the Co-ordination Committee has taken serious note of unrest amongst advocates against the shifting of digital courts to Rouse Avenue Court, and it has been resolved to register strong grievance/resentment against the same. Accordingly, it is unanimously decided to abstain from judicial work in all district courts on Monday i.e., 09.06.2025, in protest…,' read a circular issued by the Coordination Committee (of all lower Courts) dated June 6. Advocate Dhir Singh Kasana, former Saket Bar Association Secretary, said: 'When we have sufficient courtrooms in Saket, why are our Courts being shifted… We are being told only judges have been moved to Rouse Avenue Court, but a circular outside a courtroom states that all matters will be physically taken up at Rouse Avenue.' Of the 34 courtrooms, 9 are from Dwarka, 7 from Tis Hazari, 6 from Saket, 5 from Karkardooma Court, 4 from Rohini, and 3 from Patiala House Court. On Friday, Delhi High Court Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya inaugurated the 34 digital courts at the Rouse Avenue complex to exclusively hear cases under the NI Act. An administrative order passed by Principal District and Sessions Judge and Special Judge Kanwal Jeet Arora of Rouse Avenue Court read: 'The following judicial officers shall occupy and hold their courts in court room numbers mentioned against their names with immediate effect.' 'As per the directives of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi, New Delhi, vide notification… dated 30.05.2025, the courts shall continue to be under the administrative control/supervision/ jurisdiction of the districts concerned to which these courts belong,' the order dated May 31 stated. This essentially means that while the court staff will operate from their respective districts, all judges will have to sit in Rouse Avenue Court. All rooms have been allotted on the seventh floor of the court complex, which is situated near the ITO Metro in Central Delhi. In a May 30 notification, the HC cited 'optimal utilisation of available infrastructure and resources' and 'inadequate space' to justify the move. 'The remaining arrangement, including support staff deployment and recording of evidence from the respective District Court Complexes, shall continue as per the previous directions/practice until adequate and permanent space is made available in the District Courts concerned to which these Digital NI Act Courts ultimately belong,' the notification read. 'However, these Courts shall continue to be under the administrative control /supervision/ jurisdiction of the districts concerned to which these courts belong. The readers, ahlmads, and judicial records of these Digital NI Act Courts would also continue to function from their original districts so as to avoid any inconvenience to the litigants, lawyers, and stakeholders,' it added.
