There will be a direction to the second respondent to look into the matter with notice to the Presiding Officer, the President and Secretary of the Advocates' Association, petitioner and the W.P. (C). 9720/04 2 fourth respondent. Action above shall be taken within four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Interim order passed by this Court will continue till such time.
