Who amongst the following cannot be appointed as Advocate General:
Verified Answer
A. An advocate of 66 years of age.
B. An advocate who has not practiced in such State.
C. An advocate having 07 years of practice at Bar.
D. All of the above.
Explanation:
Article 165 of the Indian Constitution states that a person to be appointed Advocate General must be qualified to be appointed a Judge of a High Court. Article 217(2) requires a person to have been an advocate of a High Court for at least ten years to be qualified as a High Court Judge. Therefore, an advocate with only 7 years of practice is not qualified.
