Amarjit Singh Chandhiok – is the "President elect" of Bar Association of India – a position held by great legal luminaries

Senior Advocate Amarjit Singh Chandhiok who is the "President elect" of Bar Association of India will replace Dr. Lalit Bhasin as its President – a post which was held by great legal luminaries including M C Setalvad and Fali Nariman.

He has been the President of Delhi High Court Bar Association for six terms, which is a record. A former Additional Solicitor General of India, Amarjit was also Principal Counsel to the European Union Commission from August 2013 to March 2016. He was the only Indian lawyer who held that position so far.

Amarjit Chandhiok is also President of Maadhyam, Council for Conflict Resolution, a professional organization aiming excellence in the development of law and conflict resolution. He is Vice - Chairman of Society of Insolvency Practitioners of India and Member, Advisory Committee of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India. Amarjit is also Chairman of the Working Group under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India.

We hope that under his able guidance "Bar Association of India" will continue its endeavours for the welfare of legal fraternity. Very well deserved!
