Madras High Court Advocates Association challenges 1965 Union Cabinet decision to continue English as common language for Supreme Court and all High Courts
The Madras High Court Advocates Association has filed a petition contesting a 1965 Union Cabinet order that retained English as the common language for the Supreme Court and all High Courts. The association says it only became aware of the decision in 2025 after a lawyer obtained the details through a Right‑to‑Information request and is seeking a review of the policy.
