Advocates of the Bar Council of Rajasthan and High Court Bar Association began the dharna amid heavy security arrangements in the court premises.

"We have 14 demands and we will call off the strike and the Mahapadav only after the demands are fulfilled by the High Court administration," Sanjay Vyas, General Secretary of the Jaipur Bar Association, said.
