you cant practise as lawyer if you are working for any organisation . legal profession requires full time attention and would not countenance an Advocate riding two horses or more at a time'. The Bar Council has framed specific rules in this regarding putting restriction on other employments by the Advocates.

Under Rule 49 of the Bar Council of India Rules, an advocate shall not be a full-time employee of any person, Government, firm, corporation or concern and on taking up such employment, shall intimate such fact to the Bar Council concerned and shall cease to practise as long as he is in such employment.
