Special Arrangement
Mr. Narayan was appointed as the Advocate General of the State in August 2017 after senior counsel R. Muthukumaraswamy (since dead) tendered his resignation just days before completing one year in office. Tamil Nadu’s Advocate General Vijay Narayan put in his papers on May 1, a day before the declaration of the State Assembly election results.
In a letter addressed to Chief Minister Edappadi K. Palaniswami, he said, “As I complete my term as Advocate General for Tamil Nadu, the time has come for me to return to private practice.”
When asked why he resigned even before the declaration of results, he said, “That has been the tradition.”
