The government today (4 November) appointed 41 new Deputy Attorney Generals (DAGs) and 67 Assistant Attorney Generals (AAGs) to represent the state in cases before the Appellate and High Court Divisions of the Supreme Court.
Separate gazette notifications were issued by the solicitor wing of the Ministry of Law, Justice, and Parliamentary Affairs, stating that the appointments would take immediate effect.
In a related move, the government cancelled the appointments of 18 AAGs who had been appointed on 28 August 2024. On that date, a total of 66 DAGs and 161 AAGs had been appointed.
The latest reshuffle reflects ongoing adjustments in the government's legal representation, ensuring adequate staffing for state litigation across the Supreme Court divisions.
