Urging the members of the bar to support the initiative, the CJI announced about the inauguration of the cafe in the court complex, before the start of the day's work.

"I hope the bar will support the initiative," the CJI said, noting that all of them, who are managing the cafe, are persons with disabilities.

Attorney General R Venkataramani said it is a "symbol of great compassion".
