Sindh Bar Council has officially announced an indefinite boycott of court proceedings across the province. This protest is in direct response to the ongoing Sindh canal issue, which has sparked growing frustration among the legal community.
Despite courtrooms remaining open, the Sindh High Court saw an unusually low turnout of lawyers today. Judicial matters continued, but the absence of legal representatives was clearly visible, highlighting the intensity of the lawyers strike in Sindh 2025.
Boycott Will Continue Until Demands Are Met
According to the Sindh Bar Council, the court boycott will continue until the federal government responds to their demands regarding the disputed canal water distribution in Sindh. The Council emphasized that the matter of water rights and fair canal management is critical for the province, and the legal fraternity stands united in raising their voice.
The Sindh canal issue has been a long-standing point of contention, with lawyers now demanding clear action and accountability from federal authorities.
Solidarity With Sukkur Protesters
In a show of unity, the Sindh Bar Council expressed full solidarity with the lawyers protesting at the Sukkur Baberlo Bypass. The Council stated that these protests are a symbol of the legal community’s strength and commitment to securing justice for Sindh’s people.
This move is being seen as a strong message to the government, as the legal fraternity of Sindh stands firm until justice is served in the Sindh canal issue.
