Nagpur: In a significant directive aimed at ensuring electoral integrity within the legal fraternity, the Nagpur Bench of the Bombay High Court on Thursday ordered the High Court Bar Association (HCBA), Nagpur, to strictly implement the ‘One Bar, One Vote’ principle before conducting its forthcoming elections.

The interim order was passed by a division bench comprising Justice Anil Kilor and Justice Rajnish Vyas while hearing a writ petition (No. 6341/2025) filed by senior counsel Mohan Sudame and other lawyers. The petitioners sought enforcement of the Supreme Court’s 2011 ruling in the SC Bar Association vs B.D. Kaushik case, which mandates that an advocate registered with multiple bar associations can exercise voting rights in only one of them.
