Following an emergent meeting, the DHCBA's executive committee said that the increase in the pecuniary jurisdiction of the district courts in Delhi would have serious adverse consequences for its members.
The enhancement would result in reduction of cases by 70 percent before the Original Side, it claimed.
"The Executive Committee is of the view that the proposed enhancement would have far-reaching ramifications on the justice delivery system and would also substantially affect the practice, livelihood and professional interests of a large number of members of the Delhi High Court Bar Association."
Thus, the DHCBA asked its members to extend their full cooperation to the work suspension call in the collective interest of the bar.
"The cafeteria, bar rooms and other facilities will remain closed," it said in a notice to the members.
