Senior Advocate Satya Darshi Sanjay has been appointed as the new Advocate General of Bihar, replacing Prashant Kumar Shahi. The Bihar Law Department issued notification confirming his appointment by the Governor under Article 165(1) of the Constitution, effective after he assumes charge.
Bihar Advocate General P K Shahi voluntarily relinquished his constitutional post, saying the decision was entirely his own. He clarified that he had not resigned but stepped aside to enable the new BJP-led Bihar government to independently appoint government counsels.
