The drive would also extend to lawyers, their spouses and staff of lawyers above the age of 45.
The decision was taken at a meeting held by the administrative committee of HC convened by Chief Justice Dipankar Datta, other senior HC judges, Maharashtra Advocate General Ashutosh Kumbhakoni, Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, senior advocates and BMC officials.
