ACTIVITY = 1.
I met with an advocate named Adv. Shruthi Reddy . She was the Junior working with Nidhi Aggarwal in Madras high court . I collected information about Madras high court . Hon'ble Dr. Justice Vineet Kothari is the judge in court right now . It is one of the oldest megastructures in India built during the British period . The high courts of India are the principal civil courts of original jurisdiction in each state and union territory. However, a high court exercises its original civil and criminal jurisdiction only if the subordinate courts are not authorized by law to try such matters for lack of pecuniary, territorial jurisdiction.
