AILU Challenges BCI’s ‘Illegal’ Nomination of Karnataka Bar Council Chairman

Bengaluru, March 14: The All India Lawyers Union (AILU) has strongly opposed the nomination of Mittalakod Shidlingappa Shekharappa as the Chairman of the Karnataka State Bar Council, calling it illegal and arbitrary. The Bar Council of India (BCI) appointed Shekharappa to replace Vishalaraghu H.L., a move AILU claims violates the Advocates Act, 1961, and BCI Rules.

Addressing the media at the Press Club of Bengaluru, AILU Karnataka State Committee President Sri Harendra, alongside Muralidhara Peshwa and Koteshwar Rao, condemned the decision and demanded its immediate revocation.

BCI Oversteps Legal Boundaries?

According to the BCI, its decision was based on powers conferred under Section 48B of the Advocates Act, 1961, along with Sections 7(1)(g) and 7(1)(m), and Rule 32 of the Bar Council of India Certificate and Place of Practice (Verification) Rules, 2015. However, AILU argues that:

BCI does not have the authority to directly appoint a State Bar Council Chairman, as per Rule 7(g)(m) of the BCI Rules.

Rule 32 permits the formation of an ad-hoc committee but does not allow for direct Chairman nominations.

The reasons cited by the BCI—including the resignation of Vishalaraghu and the expiry of elected members’ tenure—do not justify a unilateral appointment.


AILU Warns of Legal Action

AILU has called on the BCI to immediately revoke the appointment, stating that the move undermines the transparency and fairness expected in the legal profession.

“If the BCI fails to withdraw this illegal decision, AILU Karnataka State Committee will be compelled to take legal steps to challenge and cancel the nomination,” said Sri Harendra.

The development has sparked concerns over the governance and regulatory practices within the legal fraternity, with AILU warning of further protests and legal action if the decision is not reversed.
