I'm a final year law student from Madras. Last week I went to a police station to submit a AB order copy of my client. There, The head constable said Ur not a lawyer, U r now just a student. Now you don't have any right to come here. In addition, He said it is an offence. Is it true? Don't I have any right to go police station now?

You have all rights as a common man.
You have no authority of a Lawyer to represent client. He is not your client.
Ur statement "to submit a AB order copy of my client." is false, as you have no right to say he is your client.

you have every right if you had made any mistake then police will arrest but not as a lawyer you cannot represent and cannot use such words

I do agree with the common advice of all experts with one addition that you should concentrate just on your studies and do not get such bitter experiences while studying otherwise it may frustrate you.
