However, verification shortfalls persisted, and datasets remained unreliable.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>On 24-9-2025, the Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court ordered that elections to all State Bar Councils be completed by 31-1-2026.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>To meet this deadline, BCI required updated verification data for May&#8212;30 September 2025 and 1&#8212;20 October 2025, with submission deadlines of 15 October and 22 October 2025, respectively.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>On 8-10-2025, the BCI&#8217;s <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">General Council<\/span> constituted an <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Election Committee<\/span> to accelerate verification and roll preparation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">By invoking Section 8A of the Advocates Act, the BCI has taken a firm stand to uphold transparency and accountability, address prolonged delays, and restore democratic representation for Delhi&#8217;s advocates.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Key Decisions:<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Dissolution of the Delhi Bar Council<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p>The <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">State Bar Council of Delhi ceases to function<\/span> with <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">immediate effect<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>All elected members and office bearers are <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">relieved of their duties<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>All committees of the Council are <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">dissolved<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Withdrawal of Election Committee<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p>The Election Committee formed on <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">8-10-2025<\/span> is <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">withdrawn<\/span> to avoid overlap.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>All responsibilities for verification, electoral roll preparation, polling, counting, and declaration now vest in the <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Special Committee<\/span>, along with a <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Returning Officer<\/span> and <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Observer<\/span> to be appointed by the BCI.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Constitution of Special Committee<\/span>:<\/p>\n<p>The newly constituted Special Committee will oversee verification, electoral roll preparation, and conduct of elections.
