She also implored the State Counsel comprising of Legal Officers from the State Ministry to aspire to be more professional in the discharge of their duties.
The Permanent Secretary, however, commended the Legal Officers for putting in so much time and efforts in preparing for the programme, urging them to always pay attention to details, exude confidence when asked questions and also be professionally prepared for unexpected issues raised during court sessions.
Among the issues raised at the Moot Court competition, where the Directorates of Citizens Mediation Centre and Civil Litigation jointly came first were Bail Application, Stay of Proceeding, No case Submission, Plea Bargain, Jurisdiction, Computer Generated Evidence and Prima Facie.
