Aditya Sanghi delivered a powerful argument before the High Court, asserting that the rule amounted to institutional favoritism and undermined the integrity of the legal profession. He contended that the Bar Council’s role is to protect the collective interest of all advocates—not to create privileges for a few. Sanghi emphasized that transparent, non-discriminatory policies are essential in maintaining trust and fairness within professional legal institutions.

Advocate Aditya Sanghi, representing the petitioner, argued that the rules were discriminatory and violated the principle of equality. He emphasized that no advocate, including Bar Council members, should be granted preferential treatment and that rules must reflect fairness and uniform application.
