Chandigarh: Punjab Chief Minister-designate Bhagwant Mann has cleared the name of senior advocate Anmol Rattan Singh Sidhu for the position of Punjab Advocate General. Sidhu has remained the president of the Punjab and Haryana high court bar association for eight terms.

The development comes after the change of guard in the state.

The position fell vacant after former advocate general Deepinder Singh Patwalia resigned on Friday, a day after AAP won the Punjab Assembly polls with a landslide victory.

The AAP romped home by winning 92 seats in the 117-member Punjab assembly. The Congress was routed in the elections and could win only 18 seats.
