Senior advocate Amar Preet Singh Deol is the new Advocate General of Punjab, the Punjab Government said on Monday.
A notification from the state government signed by Anurag Verma, Principal Secretary of Home Affairs and Justice, said Deol was formally appointed by the Punjab Governor, Banwarilal Purohit.
Deol’s is the third name to be associated with the position since former advocate Atul Nanda resigned soon after a change at the helm of the Congress government in the state last week. Before Deol’s formal appointment, the Punjab government was believed to have cleared the names of senior advocates DS Patwalia and then Anmol Ratan Singh Sidhu for the position.
