    The Chairman of the Bar Council of India Senior Advocate Manan Kumar Mishra has written a letter addressed to the Chief Justice of India U. U. Lalit beseeching him and the other judges of the Supreme Court Collegium to consider the elevation of Judges of those High Courts who are unrepresented in the Supreme Court.
