Can a secretary of state be a party in a petition?
Why chief secretary of state cannot be a party in petition?
While a Chief Secretary plays a significant role in state administration, their position as an administrative head and representative of government policy means they are generally not named as parties in legal petitions. Instead, any legal disputes involving state actions are typically addressed through appropriate governmental channels and representatives.
Sir, recently in a notice released by the Uttarakhand High Court instructed lawyers to refrain from including the chief secretary as a party in any state government-related lawsuit or cases. Dhananjay Chaturvedi, registrar general of the high court, released a notification that stating, "The members of Bar Council shall agree that although the chief secretary to the government is the head of the state secretariat, no department of the government comes under his portfolio."
