The association also had directed a lawyer, who had appeared for Nalini to obtain bail, not to appear for her in the future.
In a press conference, here, Anand said, Siddaramaiah should withdraw his comments. The association had taken a similar decision in the recent past. Siddaramaiah is being misled by a few advocates, he alleged.
