Plea for SC, ST, BC judges

Members of the Lawyers’ Forum for Social Justice requested acting chief justice NV Ramana of the High Court on Thursday to take steps for providing adequate representation to advocates belonging to the SC, ST and OBC communities in selection and appointment of High Court judges.

A delegation led by forum convener Krishna Devan submitted a memorandum to justice  Ramana in the latter’s chamber in this regard. The acting chief justice assured them of a fair deal.

The forum members said that no SC or BC advocate had been appointed a judge of the HC since 2002.
