Hi, Myself is a Government employee working in Government sector, completed my LL.B. with prior permission and am having permission for enrolment as advocate from my employer. I wish to get enrolled while keeping my license to practice under suspension ab initio. Please advise, is it possible to get enrolled with suspended license.

As the BCI rules clearly says that 'full-time employee' is not eligible to enrol as an advocate, there is no possibility of suspended license ab-initio. Since you are in Govt service, you will have to seek enrolment only after your retirement/VRS.
