Ramon Services Pvt. Ltd vs Subhash Kapoor And Others

The Supreme Court emphasized the critical role of lawyers in upholding social justice and the rule of law, asserting that strikes by advocates disrupt the justice delivery system and are not comparable to industrial strikes. The Court highlighted that the legal profession is service-oriented, governed by contracts and statutory provisions under the Advocates Act, which mandates lawyers to prioritize their duties to clients and the justice system. The judgment reinforces the expectation that lawyers must actively contribute to the socio-political modernization of the country, as articulated in The Bar Council of Maharashtra v. M.V. Dabholkar & Ors. [1976 (2) SCC 291].
