You will have to opt either job or profession.

Profession do not permit simultanious work.

Please read Rule 49 of the Bar Council of India Rules, which reads as:

Under Rule 49 of the Bar Council of India Rules, an advocate shall not be a full-time employee of any person, Government, firm, corporation or concern and on taking up such employment, shall intimate such fact to the Bar Council concerned and shall cease to practise as long as he is in such employment.
