Jagan releases ₹6 crore for financial assistance to junior advocates

Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has released ₹6,12,65,000 towards the first tranche of YSR Law Nestham for 2023-24 benefiting 2,677 junior advocates. An amount of ₹25,000 each, covering the five-month period from February 2023, will be credited directly into their bank accounts.

Releasing the amount virtually with the click of a button at his camp office at Tadepalli near here on Monday, the Chief Minister said that YSR Law Nestham was intended to handhold junior advocates and help them settle down in profession in the initial three years after enrolment.

“A.P. is the only State in the country which has been providing aid under the scheme to help junior advocates,” he said, adding that the second tranche would be released in December.
