The Delhi High Court has granted the prestigious Senior Advocate designation to 85 lawyers, including 11 women, following a decision taken during a Full Court meeting held on Thursday.
The latest round of designations comes after an extensive selection exercise in which 231 advocates sought the coveted distinction.
