Only in rarest of rare cases where the dignity, integrity and independence of the Bar and\/or the bench are at stake and a protest abstention from work not more than a day may be entertained and to do so, the President of the Bar must consult and seeks permission from the Chief Justice or the District Judge in the matter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">(ii)\u00a0<em>Hussain v.
