Corruption in the Government bodies is not unheard of. And the story of the Bar Council of Delhi is no different. On many occasions eminent Adv. Himal Akhtar, who is standing for the post of President in the upcoming Bar Council of Delhi elections, has raised his voice against the ill practices of the Council affecting the interest of many lawyers in the legal fraternity.
