Jaipur: Advocates are the backbone of the judicial system, Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma said on Sunday while addressing a delegation of the Rajasthan Bar Council. Sharma said the legal community plays a crucial role in nation building and that their dedication and service have given new dimensions to Indian justice. “Advocates are an inseparable part of our legal system. By ensuring timely justice to the underprivileged, they play a crucial role in nation-building,” Sharma said.A delegation of the Rajasthan Bar Council had called on him to thanks him for the Rs 7.5 crore one-time assistance allocated to the Bar Council in the 2024–25 state budget.“Rajasthan Bar Council has been instrumental in implementing legal reforms, promoting legal education, and providing legal aid—these efforts are strengthening the state’s judicial fabric,” Sharma added.He also emphasised the state govt’s commitment to improving judicial infrastructure. “We are working in a phased manner to enhance facilities across courts in Rajasthan,” he said. Sharma encouraged advocates to contribute beyond their practice. “Just as Prime Minister Narendra Modi inspired the country through campaigns like Swachh Bharat, Beti Bachao-Beti Padhao, and Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam, advocates too can play a key role in steering society in a positive direction.”
