PLEASE CLARIFY VALIDITY OF SO CALLED " TAX BAR ASSOCIATION" FORMED AND REGISTERED UNDER STATE SOCIETIES ACT CONSISTING ADVOCATES ALONGWITH MEMBERS OTHER THAN LAW DEGREE HOLDERS IN WEST BENGAL.? "BAR" IS NOT DEFINED IN BAR COUNCIL REGULATIONS? THERE IS BAR ASSOCIATION DEFINED ONLY FOR THE PURPOSE OF ADVOCATES WELFARE SCHEME FOR ADVOCATES . DO BAR COUNCIL AFFILIATES/RECOGNISE SUCH BAR ASSOCIATION? CAN GOVT AUTHORITY RECOGNISE THEM AS BAR ASSOCIATION?

THANKING YOU

SHRAWAN KUMAR AGARWALA, ADVOCATE
