Rana Muhammad Akram Khan has been given the trophy of The Legend of the Bar by Mr. Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, Chief Justice of Pakistan.
Rana Muhammad Akram did M.A (Pol. Science) from University of Karachi, LLB from S.M Law College and M.A Journalism from Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich.
Rejecting the National Judicial Policy, Punjab Bar Council's Chairman Executive Committee Rana Muhammad Akram Khan and members of Executive Committee Muhammad Lehrasib Khan Gondal, Rana Muhammad Asif Saeed, Rao Abdul Ghaffar and Faryad Ali Chaudhry said that the policy was not delivering justice to people and it was only accelerating the process for disposing of cases.[15] Addressing a joint press conference, vice Chairman Punjab Bar Council Mumtaz Mustafa, Rana Muhammad Akram Khan and other senior members of the Bar council said that hastening the disposing of judges was equal to the burial of justice. The judiciary should give rulings on merit without making any haste, they said. They said not even five percent judges are honest in lower courts, whereas the remarks of Lahore High Court Chief Justice Khawaja Muhammad Sharif suggest as if judges of Khilafat-e-Rashida have been appointed. Punjab Bar Council is representative of more than 70,000 advocates and Qazi Anwar, the president of Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA), is not the representative of lawyers to decide about lawyers point of view on National Judicial Policy, they remarked.[16][17]
