Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the constitutional validity of Section 48AA of the Advocates Act, 1961, which allows the Bar Council of India to review its orders within sixty days. The Court held that the limitation period for filing a review petition begins from the date of the order being reviewed, establishing that the Bar Council's interpretation was correct. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the Bar Council's authority to regulate the conduct of advocates under the Advocates Act.
