Work in district courts resumed today as the Mathura Bar Association called off their six-day old strike.

A delegation of the Mathura Bar Association will meet the Chief Justice of Allahabad High Court and request him to expedite the case in connection with the unauthorised possession of a government land by the followers of a religious leader, president of Mathura Bar Association, Indra Kumar Vashistha said.

"We would also request the Chief Justice to direct state government to provide heavy force and set a time limit for vacating the land," Vashistha said.

The association went on strike on April 5 after more than a dozen people, including Tehsil staff, advocates and litigants, were injured in an attack allegedly by followers of a religious leader here.
