Gujarat law grads can start practice while they wait for the bar exam

The Law graduates of Gujarat have a breather with the Gujarat Bar Council passing a resolution to allow them to practice without appearing for the All India Bar Examination (AIBE). The resolution states that the graduates will be allowed to practice, and licenses will be issued with an undertaking that they will appear for the AIBE when conducted. Speaking to Bar & Bench, Vice Chairman of the Bar Council of Gujarat said, “The BCI has sent us a resolution where it had expressed practical difficulties in conducting the examinations before March 6, 2011. Therefore in the interest of the students and the directive of the BCI, we have decided to give temporary enrolment to students who have applied for the AIBE, the rights to practice”. “These rights are only given to students who had previously applied for the AIBE and not to everyone who has approached the Bar Council for enrollment,” he added.
