The Law Ministry’s statement comes days before prominent attorney Mukul Rohatgi is anticipated to resume his duties as Attorney General of India on October 1.
All cases will be marked to the Attorney General each day so that he can decide which ones need his personal appearance in court, according to a notification from the Ministry of Law and Justice. The Supreme Court’s government law officers will receive cases more efficiently as a result.
According to the office directive, the Attorney General of India would be given a list of cases on a daily basis so that he may choose the ones in which he felt it was necessary to appear before the Supreme Court. Following that, the list of cases will be presented to the Solicitor General of India, who will mark the matters to himself, the Additional Solicitors General of India to appear either alone or with the Attorney General for India/Solicitor General of India, and the counsel from Group “A,” “B,” and “C” Panel.
The choice was made before to prominent lawyer Mukul Rohatgi’s anticipated return to his position as India’s attorney general, which is expected to begin on October 1 after current attorney general KK Venugopal’s extended term finishes on September 30.
Due to his increasing age, Attorney General Venugopal has previously stated that he was reluctant to stay on in the position.
Other state high courts’ procedures were also described in the Law Ministry’s decree. The decision said that the proceedings would be assigned by the in-charge in consultation with the Additional Solicitor General with reference to cases filed in the High Courts of Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta, Madras, and Karnataka.
