Formation of All India Bar Committee and Recommendations
In 1951, the All India Bar Committee, under the chairmanship of Justice
S.R. Das, was formed to review the legal profession’s state and propose
reforms. The committee submitted a report recommending the
establishment of All India Bar Councils and State Bar Councils. These
bodies would have the power of enrollment, suspension or removal of
advocates, thus ensuring uniform standards and discipline in the legal
profession.
The committee proposed maintaining a common roll of advocates
authorised to practice in all courts across the country. It also advocated
against further recruitment of non-graduated pleaders or mukhtars,
aiming to elevate the qualifications and professionalism of legal
practitioners.
