Attorney General of India

Subject: Polity

Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth

The highest law officer under Article 76, advising the central government on legal matters and representing it in the Supreme Court. Appointed by the President, the AG must be qualified to be a Supreme Court judge. They hold office at the President’s pleasure and cannot be a member of Parliament but may participate in parliamentary proceedings without voting rights. The AG’s counsel is vital in drafting legislation, defending union policies, and clarifying constitutional ambiguities. Critics note potential conflicts between independence and loyalty to the government. Nonetheless, the office is integral to India’s legal framework, bridging the executive and judiciary at the national level.
