Delhi lawyers have suspended their strike after the central government decided to pause its controversial notification requiring accused individuals to make video-recorded statements at police stations instead of courts.
The legal community had protested, arguing the move would increase police coercion and undermine fair trial rights. Union Home Minister Amit Shah has also said that he will hear lawyers' concerns against the government's decision.
Following discussions, the government agreed to reconsider the directive and engage in further consultations with stakeholders.
The strike’s suspension aims to restore normalcy in court operations while discussions continue.
