financial support.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Points:<\/h3>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<li>Recommended minimum stipend in:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>Urban areas- Rs. 20,000\/- per month<\/li>\n<li>Rural areas- Rs. 15, 000\/- per month<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Minimum stipend will be provided for a period of at least 3 years from the date of engagement.<\/li>\n<li>Stipend will be paid via bank transfer to ensure transparency and accountability.<\/li>\n<li>The implementation of these guidelines will not be made mandatory across the board due to the disparities such as:\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>Advocates in metropolitan cities have higher earning potential as compared to in smaller towns and rural areas where the lawyers have fewer opportunities and lower paying cases.<\/li>\n<li>Advocates in the field of corporate law, intellectual property or tax have greater financial resources as compared to those practicing in civil, criminal or public interest litigation.<\/li>\n<li>Senior advocates, advocates, law firms have a considerable difference in financial situations as compared to solo practitioners.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>An annual report has to be submitted to the respective State Bar Council detailing the number of junior advocates, the stipend paid and duration of their engagement.<\/li>\n<li>Junior advocates who do not receive the stipulated stipend or face other engagement- related grievances can file a complaint with the respective State Bar Council.<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Bar Council will
