Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Association Requests Change In Supreme Court's Winter Vacation Schedule

The Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Association has requested the Supreme Court to revise the winter vacation schedule as starting from December 24, 2024, to January 13, 2025.

The present schedule is from December 23 to January 1.

The letter written by Mr. Nikhil Jain (Hony. Secretary of the Association) to the Secretary General of the Supreme Court, stated that with climate change, the peak winter season has been starting in the first week of January over the last 3-5 years. Because of this, the schedule of vacation for schools and colleges have changed. Therefore, while advocates have their vacations in December, their children get the break only in January. This mismatch affects the ability of the advocates to spend quality family time.
