48/ 28.04.2011

Heard learned counsel for the parties.

In view of the categorical statement of the learned Advocate General on the part of the State that the State has no intention for repealing or substituting the Bihar State Advocates' Welfare Fund Act, 1983 and the State intends to apply it with all amendments incorporated therein prior to the bifurcation of the State, the Act will be applicable to the State of Jharkhand.

With this stand given by the learned Advocate General, there remains nothing in this case to be proceeded further and the order dated 22nd August 2006 stands clarified to that extent. Nothing further is required to be passed as far as the Bihar State Advocates' Welfare Fund Act, 1983 is concerned. The other issue will be taken up as and when the question becomes germane.

Put up this case as and when parties apply and the situation warrants.
