PANJIM: The Goa Government has paid its Advocate General Mr. Subodh Kantak Rs 5 crores 13 lakhs 11,750 for the period from 14th Feb 2005 to May 2011. The Law department has informed Adv. Aires Rodrigues under the Right to Information Act that the amount paid to the Advocate General Subodh Kantak is by way of his professional fees, retainership and other allowances.
The amount excludes the period form 5th March 2005 to 15th June 2005 when Goa was under President’s rule and Senior Counsel Mario Bruto da Costa was appointed the Advocate General.
The information furnished to Adv. Aires Rodrigues further reveals that the highest amount paid to Advocate General Subodh Kantak was for March 2007 when Mr. Subodh Kantak got a whopping 19 Lakhs 60 thousand by way of professional fees.
Claiming that Mr. Subodh Kantak who is not even a Senior Counsel is India’s highest paid Advocate General, Adv. Rodrigues has today stated that the Advocate Generals of Maharastra, Karnataka and Gujarat on the average are never paid more that Rs 50,000 a month.
Stating that Advocate Generals in other States only appear in constitutional and important matters, Adv. Rodrigues has accused Mr. Subodh Kantak of appearing in all sorts of matters just because he is paid Rs 8000/- every time he stands up in the High Court.
Adv. Rodrigues has stated that Advocate General Subodh Kantak who was earlier being paid on an average over Rs 10 lakhs a month is now getting upto Rs. 5 lakhs a month.but that the same needs to be further lowered as in other States.
Adv. Rodrigues has further stated that it was very evident that Chief Minister Digambar Kamat was not serious on his assurance that the Goa AG’s fees would be brought down on par with the neighboring states.
Adv. Rodrigues has stated that it was an irony that Goa’s Advocate General Subodh Kantak was being paid more then the Governor, Chief Minister, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and even the President of India.
