💨 Abstract

Lawyers in Sindh, Pakistan, staged a province-wide boycott of subordinate courts, resulting in a standstill of judicial activities. The protest was against a contentious canals project, with lawyers expressing solidarity with colleagues participating in a long-running sit-in at the Babarloi Bypass. They argue the project is illegal, imposed without consent, and threatens local agriculture, water rights, and provincial autonomy.
