Rajendra Chaudhry, a newly qualified lawyer who has been in practice only for about six months, was appointed his father's private secretary when Mahendra Chaudhry became prime minister in 1999.
Mahendra Chaudhry has told a talk back show on told Radio Legend Fijian language sister station that his son is not qualified to take up the position of attorney general.
He says Rajendra needs to practise more and needs to gain a thorough knowledge of law before he can be even considered for such a position.
