The Supreme Court introduced major reforms in the Supreme Court Bar Association concerning composition, voter eligibility and election procedures, with a Bench led by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant issuing comprehensive directions aimed at restructuring the lawyers’ body and ensuring broader, inclusive electoral participation.
Today, On 4th September, Former SCBA President Adish C. Aggarwala filed a plea at the Supreme Court, questioning the validity of the voter list for the bar association’s elections. He also presented a no-confidence motion against current President Kapil Sibal. Disputes arose after a resolution was issued without proper consultation, prompting Aggarwala to seek clarification from the court.
