The decision, which marks one of the largest mass removals in recent history, was made during a general body meeting of the association.

The Meerut Bar Association has revoked the membership of 1,346 lawyers due to their failure to pay annual membership fees.

The decision, which marks one of the largest mass removals in recent history, was made during a general body meeting of the association. 

Officials say repeated reminders were sent to defaulting members, but the majority failed to settle their dues within the stipulated timeline.

The Bar Association emphasized that active membership is essential not only for professional standing but also for accessing facilities and participating in internal elections.

This move is expected to serve as a wake-up call for members to uphold their financial obligations, as the association reaffirms its commitment to administrative order and accountability.
