Over 500 lawyers were on ceasework at Srirampore Court in Hooghly district today demanding the transfer of a judge, the bar association said.
Bar Association Secretary of the Sub-divisional court Ramchandra Ghosh said all the counsels had been boycotting the court of the said judge since January seven in protest against some of her comments.
"With no action taken against her in this regard, all the lawyers today went for a day's ceasework demanding the concerned SDJM be transferred by the authorities immediately," Ghosh said claiming there was no politics into it.
Work got affected in magistrates' courts as a consequence while the judge's office did not comment.
