\n

Delhi High Court:<\/span> In a batch of petitions filed by the applicant seeking modification\/clarification of Paragraph 35(11.17)(iv) of the judgment dated 19-03-2024 passed by this Court for treating law researchers as bona fide<\/span> advocates and allowing them to cast their vote in the elections of the Bar Associations of which they are members of, a 3-Judge Bench comprising of Manmohan, ACJ, Rajiv Shakdher, and Suresh Kumar Kait, JJ., allowed the application and dispensed the timeline stipulated for capturing biometrics for the issuance of identity cards.<\/p>\n

The Court found merit in the applications filed by the applicants and noted that there were more than 1.25 to 1.5 lakh advocates\/clerks registered with the Bar Association of Delhi and capturing of their biometrics would require considerable time and the process might not be completed within the timeline fixed by the judgment dated 19-03-2024.<\/p>\n

Thus, the Court allowed the application and dispensed with the direction to capture the biometrics of the advocates\/registered clerks for issuance of proximity\/identity cards as per the previous judgment dated 19-03-2024.<\/p>\n
