Advocates Act, 1961 - The High Court has power to issue a writ to any person or Authority including any Government within its territory for enforcement of any of the rights conferred by Part-III of the Constitution of India and/or any other purpose. The writ jurisdiction is being exercised to protect the fundamental rights of the members of the Bar to appear in the Court and also the fundamental rights of the citizens of the State to get their cases decided with the assistance of the Advocates engaged by them. Therefore, the writ petition against call by the Bar to abstain from work has not become infructuous and that the writ court is bound to protect the rights of the citizens.
