Law students demand withdrawal of amended Advocates Act
July 20, 2016
About 50 students of law college were arrested today while attempting to stage picketing in the middle of a flyover on busy Avanashi Road in Coimbatore, demanding the immediate withdrawal of the amendments to the Advocates Act.
The students, with placards showing their demands, squatted in the middle of the road, bringing the traffic to a halt for a while. Even as police arrived at the scene, some students raised slogans and attempted to block the traffic.
However, police diverted the traffic from the other side and removed the students, but not before some minor brawls between them. The students were arrested and released later.
