Kamal said that lawyers would stage sit-ins before Parliament House and in various other cities, step up court boycotts, block courtrooms, arrange countrywide marches converging in Islamabad and court arrests, and would also resort to civil disobedience movements if the sacked judges were not reinstated by the new deadline.
