New Delhi:
Senior lawyer Mukul Rohatgi has declined the centre’s offer to return as the Attorney General of India, the government’s top lawyer, sources said.
Mukul Rohatgi, 67, stepped down as Attorney General in June 2017. KK Venugopal took over after him.
Mr Venugopal’s extended tenure ends on September 30. He served as the Centre’s top law officer for five years. The central government had proposed Mukul Rohatgi to become the Attorney General again which was earlier accepted by him.
