Speculation is rife whether Attorney-General Mukul Rohatgi and Solicitor-General Ranjit Kumar would get an extension next month. Their services along with a number of other law officers are scheduled to end early next month. There are also rumors that Harish Salve, who fought India's case at the International Court of Justice at Hague this month, may be asked once again to take up the job of the government's top law officer. It is said that Salve was originally made the offer when the NaMo administration was ushered in May 2014. He had then refused the offer because he was too preoccupied with a number of cases. What's the situation now for him is best known to him and the PMO.
