Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (b) 2 only
Law firms are not ‘advocates’; but individual corporate counsels and patent attorneys who hold law degrees and are enrolled with a State Bar Council are recognised as advocates, so Statement 1 is incorrect. Under Sections 7 and 49 of the Advocates Act 1961, the Bar Council of India frames rules on legal education and recognises law colleges, so Statement 2 is correct. Thus, only Statement 2 is correct.
