13th February 2009 : TVM switched on to hartal mood

Setting up a High Court Bench in Thiruvananthapuram has been a long standing reason for many hartals and here it is once again raising its ugly head. Now it is on the the first anniversary of its agitation by the Action Council.Action Council chairman C.K. Sitaram said that they had already organised marches to the Secretariat, Parliament, High Court and Raj Bhavan. They had also met the Prime Minister, State Governor, Union Law Minister, Defence Minister, Expatriate Affairs Minister, High Court Chief Justice and the Chief Justice-designate in this regard. But there has been no positive outcome so far.Advocates will boycott the courts on Friday in protest against the delay in granting the Bench.
