There is no bar to appoint another lawyer from another city. So proceed to do the same.

Lawyers appoint is simply on the basis of a Vakalatnama. Just sign it & hand it over to the lawyer to whom you want to hire.

But my question is different
1) Whether I need approval from exiting first lawyer
2) Whether I need approval from the arbitrator who was appointed by high court for appointment of second lawyer because both layer will sit during arbitration
