Advocates have, at last, been allotted a parking lot by the state government. High court advocates can now park vehicles between the high court and old KGID building in the Cubbon Park premises.

Announcing this, law and parliamentary affairs minister S Suresh Kumar said: “Considering the parking needs of advocates, we have decided to use the area between old KGID building and high court. We will lay tiles in the area and make arrangements for parking up to 600 cars.”

Cars are already being parked in the space. The new flooring will facilitate smooth parking. The technology used will be such that the floor can quickly absorb rainwater. Also, there is no need to chop a single tree in Cubbon Park for this, he said.

After conducting a video conference with district judicial officers on infrastructure, Kumar said: “To help high court advocates, we have decided to build a new canteen. Work on this began two months ago. By July 15, the basement will be ready. We have also decided to shift the court room from Mayo Hall to Utility Buildings in one-and-half months.”

Suresh Kumar said construction of judges’ bungalows at Hebbal was in progress. In the first phase, four bungalows would be ready by August 15. By September 15, four more bungalows would be completed. By 2012 March, seven more bungalows would be ready. The state government was constructing 15 bungalows for judges at Rs55 crore, he said.

“As announced in the state budget, we will provide power generation sets for all district courts for their smooth functioning,” he added.
