State Bar Council of Madhya Pradesh (SBCMP) has exempted advocates in lower courts from wearing black coats, part of their dress code, during peak summer.
Such relief is given to lawyers of lower courts in summer according to Bar Council of India's (BCI) guidelines and rules.
"In a bid to provide relief to more than 60,000 advocates from sultry heat we have exempted them from wearing black coats from April 15 to July 15," SBCMP secretary Mukesh Mishra told PTI today.
He said a circular was recently sent in this regard to different advocates' bodies across the state.
