Do you know about the simplest procedure by which Jurist T. R. Andhyarujina was designated as Senior Advocate by the then Chief Justice of Bombay High Court...?
He passed away recently. He has unquestionable reputation as role model Senior Advocate.
Since 2015, a hot debate is going on in legal corridors about procedures to designate an Advocate as Senior Advocate.
Almost all Chief Justices confer such designation on basis of some recommendations. But now there is a debate. A case is heard and a pronouncement is bound to follow.
In 2015, I wrote following blog on how T. R. Andhyarujina was designated as Senior Advocate.
He was discussing his designation with some other Senior Advocates in lunch room. I was also then taking lunch in one corner of common lunch room.
So I overheard this discussion and wrote following blog post in 2015.
I think it is worthwhile to remember it again : Please see post dated 29/1/15 on this blog on this very topic.
