‘Cowshed’ law colleges slammed by Madras HC
Chennai:17,09,2021
The Madras high court on Thursday deplored the trend of ‘cowshed’ law colleges mushrooming in the country, damaging the image of the lawyers.
It is a big issue that needs to be addressed to preserve the credibility of lawyers, the first bench of Chief Justice Sanjib Banerjee and Justice P D Audikesavalu orally observed.
The bench made the observation when a PIL petition praying for a direction to the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry to nominate retired/sitting judges as members of the council’s disciplinary committees came up.
The petitioner found fault with the present practice of nominating other lawyers as ‘judges’ of the committees. PTI
