There is no high court in Kurnool and due to this the advocates of the bar association have set up a demand to the government to bring high court to the district. On Thursday they launched an indefinite hunger strike at sri Krishnadevaraya circle.


According to the president of the bar association Umar javed ali the fast will continue up till September 20. He said that the advocates  want a high court in Kurnool an not a bench. Other than Kurnool the government can sanction a bench to any district that they choose, but there should be a high court in Kurnool.


Umar Javed said that the advocates in all the mandals will also start a hunger strike for this purpose. The bar association of Kurnool is planning to set up a delegation to talk to the chief minister YS jagan Mohan Reddy on September 20 and will put up their demand to him for a high court. The further plan of action will be decided after the discussion with the chief minister depending on his response.


It looks like other political parties are interested in this hunger strike because the MP of BJP party TG venkatesh visited the camp where the lawyers are sitting on hunger strike and extended his solidarity.
