Which of the following forms of protest did the Supreme Court in Ex-Capt. Harish Uppal v. Union of India NOT accept as a permissible way for lawyers to protest?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The Court held that lawyers have no right to go on strike or call a boycott, "not even on a token strike". Protest may take the form of press statements, TV interviews, banners outside court premises, arm bands, peaceful marches away from court, dharnas or relay fasts. A token boycott called by the Bar is therefore not permitted.
