State relaxes age limit for law aspirants, Bar Council doesn’t
The state government, on Thursday, clarified that the age criteria will be relaxed for this year’s law admissions, even as the Bar Council of India, the apex regulatory body for legal education, insisted that it’s a must for those seeking to practise law. With little clarity on the issue, the state decided to conduct the first round of admissions under a centralised admission process without considering the aspirants’ ages. However, a couple of days ago, BCI warned law colleges that over-aged students won’t get a chance to practise law, prompting the state to take a stand on the matter. But we won’t give them license to practice law, once they graduate,” said Satish Deshmukh, a member of BCI’s Legal Education Committee.
