In a notable move, the Central Government has appointed six esteemed senior advocates as Additional Solicitor Generals (ASGs) for the Supreme Court of India. This decision, which takes effect immediately, was formally announced through a notification issued by the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances, and Pensions on September 9.
The newly appointed ASGs include Senior Advocates S Dwarakanath, Archana Pathak Dave, Satya Darshi Sanjay, Brijender Chahar, Raghavendra P. Shankar, and Rajkumar Bhaskar Thakare. Their term will last for three years from the date they officially take up their roles or until further directives are issued.
These distinguished legal professionals will join the current team of five ASGs at the Supreme Court, which already includes Senior Advocates SV Raju, Aishwarya Bhati, Vikramjeet Banerjee, N Venkataraman, and KM Nataraj. The appointment of these accomplished advocates is set to strengthen the government's legal representation in critical cases and ensure expert legal advice in complex matters presented before the country's highest court.
