25.7.1951: MUKHTIYARS NOT ALLOWED TO PRACTICE IN ANY OTHER COURT BUT
THE DEWAN COURT (1951)

Order No. 165/51-OS

Under order No. 61/51/OS of the 14 of May, Mukhtars are not permitted to
th
practice in any court but that of the Dewan. It appears that some of them have

continued appearing in other courts in cases in which they had been engaged prior
to that order. While this may be permitted until the cases are decided, courts should

be careful to see that they do not appear in fresh cases, or Mukhtars. Pleader’s fees
should however not be allowed in any case whether instituted before the 14 of
th
May or not.
