Hosur advocates boycott courts against shifting land cases

All lawyers attached to the Hosur Bar Association (HBA) today boycotted courts in Hosur today as a token protest against shifting to Krishnagiri of land acquisition cases, previously tried locally, following the setting up of a new civil court there.
The protesting advocates demanded that land acquisition cases should be tried in Hosur courts only and not be shifted to Krishnagiri. Already the HBA has been demanding the Judiciary to shift the Additional District Judge Court-cum-Sessions Court from Krishnagiri to Hosur, they said.
Currently the land acquisition cases pertaining to Hosur and Denkanikotta taluks are being tried in the Sub-Court in Hosur.
The HBA has also been demanding for a permanent Labour Court in Hosur, which is one of the top industrial belts in the country. But instead of meeting these demands, the government has set up a new Special Court for land acquisition cases in Krishnagiri, they said.
