The term of an elected Bar Council member is generally five years from the date the full council is formed. During these five years, the member takes part in meetings, decision-making, enrolment matters, welfare schemes, and disciplinary work. Their role continues unless they resign, are removed, or the council is dissolved earlier for any special reason. Even after five years, members may continue for a short time until the next elected council officially takes charge, ensuring there is no gap in the functioning of the Bar Council. This fixed term helps maintain stability, continuity, and proper representation for all advocates.
