I, Manjit Kaur, wife of Balbir Singh, aged 58, of House No. 221, Street No. 4, Gurdev Nagar, Ludhiana 141001, the plaintiff in the above matter, appoint Amandeep Kaur Sidhu, Advocate, of Chamber No. 42, District Courts, Ludhiana, enrolment No. P/1234/2012 (the Advocate), to act for me in the case named above, in this court only, and I authorise the Advocate:

1. 1. to appear, act and plead for me, and to sign and file pleadings, petitions, applications, replies, affidavits and other papers on my behalf;

1. 2. to produce and examine witnesses, and to inspect, take and return documents;

1. 3. to receive notices and summonses, and to obtain copies of orders;

1. 4. to deposit money in court and to receive money from the court on my account, and to give receipts for it;

1. 5. to engage another advocate to act in the Advocate's place when the Advocate cannot attend, with the same powers; and

I agree that I will pay the Advocate's fee as settled between us (as agreed in writing between us on 1 October 2026), and that I will attend the court whenever I am called upon. I ratify what the Advocate lawfully does for me in the matter. I understand that the Advocate cannot promise the result of the case.

CLIENT

ACCEPTED

I accept this appointment.

ADVOCATE: Amandeep Kaur Sidhu

LEGAL BASIS

Punjab: A party is represented in court by an advocate whom the party appoints by signing a vakalatnama, which the advocate files in the case, ordinarily at the first appearance. The vakalatnama is signed by the party and accepted by the advocate. Some courts ask for a welfare-fund stamp or fee on the vakalatnama; the amount and whether it applies to a given court have not been confirmed, so ask at the filing counter.

Chandigarh: The same applies in the courts at Chandigarh. A vakalatnama filed in the Punjab and Haryana High Court follows that court's own rules of practice, which have not been checked here.

PERSONAL DATA NOTICE

This notice is given under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

The purpose of collecting the personal data in this document is to identify the client and the advocate and to record the appointment and its extent, so that the advocate can appear and act in the case.

The record will be held by Kuldip Singh Sandhu and may be shared with the client, the advocate and the advocate's staff, and the court in which the vakalatnama is filed.

If the matter does not proceed, the personal data will be retained for 90 days and then erased. If the matter proceeds, the record will be retained for the transaction or authority matter plus 12 months, except where a statute requires a longer named retention period.
