Last month, a protest was held by lawyers over a rise in attacks against them across the state. The Bar Council of Uttar Pradesh had asked bar associations to join the protest, urging the state government to pass legislation to protect lawyers. On January 7, a 32-year-old lawyer, Shekhar Tripathi, was beaten to death with sticks by five men in Lucknow, triggering anger among his colleagues who protested against his death at the district collectorate.  Last year, on December 17, a man was killed and two policemen were injured when unidentified men opened fire at a court in Bijnore.
