The incident had highlighted the security lapses in the court, on which the Delhi High Court took cognizance. Today's incident has further stressed the need for enhancing the security arrangements in Courts.The General Secretary of the North Delhi Lawyer's Association, advocate Vineet Jindal, issued a press statement stating the following:"Security lapse in district courts is a great concern for litigants and advocates. Delhi High Court is also taking note upon the security lapse and has issued directions to the Delhi police, but the security issue is still the same. Delhi's District Courts must have a delegated security unit with updated gadgets, then only we can ensure the security of Delhi's district courts. Judge advocates and litigants who visit Courts to get justice must have a secure environment in the Court. Nowadays, litigants, advocates and even judges are scared due to the recent incident in district courts in Delhi."
