Bengaluru: The Advocates’ Association Bengaluru (AAB) submitted a representation to the government requesting to consider advocates as frontline workers.

“The entire legal fraternity, especially the advocates across the country and the state, have toiled day in and day out to ensure that the administration of justice does not come to a standstill. In this pursuit of selfless sacrifice and public service, many advocates not only contracted the virus but also tragically succumbed to it,” the representation stated.

A P Ranganath, president of AAB has also requested the government to provide free treatment in all the hospitals for the members of the Bench, the Bar and Court staff, apart from providing financial help to advocates in dire need of finances. The AAB has also requested the chief minister to grant Rs 30 lakh as compensation for the advocates who passed away due to Covid-19.
