AoRs will be reduced to signing authority if allowed to simply sign-off on petitions without accountability: Supreme Court

Aggarwala, meanwhile, urged the Court to take a lenient view of certain cases where AoRs were said to have simply signed off on petitions without vetting their contents. He assured the bench that such instances will not take place in future.

“We will not issue you notice if it does happen (again)(But) we will not allow netagiri (political one-upmanship) here. AoR has a higher responsibility. We want to discourage concept of AoR only lending their purpose for signatures,” Justice Kaul replied.

Continuing to address Aggarwala, Justice Kaul said,

“As a leader you want to defend him (AoR). You only want relief for him. I have become lenient and do not want to pass adverse orders. On that aspect (review of bar license), we are keeping it pending.”
