Admit cards and hall passes for candidates sitting the all India bar exam on 6 March will be dispatched by registered post or will be available at the exam venue, Bar Council of India (BCI) chairman and solicitor general Gopal Subramanium said today.
“The admit cards for all the eligible students are being dispatched over today and tomorrow by UPC [under postal certificate of India Post]. As a backup, the copies of the admit cards will be available at the exam centre’s as well on furnishing proof of identity,” Subramanium told legal website Bar & Bench.
“We look forward to having a large number of our graduates successfully clearing the bar exam, and I personally wish them all the very best in their preparations towards the March 6th exam,” he said.
On 14 February the petitioners’ lawyer in the Bombay High Court case challenging the bar exam, said that not all study materials had been received.
The BCI stated at the beginning of this month that 22,267 applications had been received for the bar exam, of whom only 38 had not received their study materials and 377 had not completed their application forms correctly.
The Supreme Court petition on the legality of the bar exam remains pending.

2. STUDY MAT sent by RM. BCI has noting to say
3. Hall Tic sent by RM again BCI has nothing to say
4. Papers corrected by RM again BCI in same level
5. Certificate issued by BCI.
OMR system has its own demerits and its v much possible that the candidates can fall prey to it.
pay attention in the class. learn what is right. do not just waste your time on this link till such time you realise no one is above the law. not even BCI forget Rainmaker altogether.
The BCI could'nt be bothered even being the sole copyright holder of the material.
how does it even make sense to hold an exam for our batch in march whole the next batches passed out in another two months????
We would have completed ten months of work when we sit down for an exam which will test my knowledge for a profession which we have been practicing for almost a year....
can anyone explain this to us..
@6- Back off!!
Prove yourself first.
"Ultravirus"????
More and more I begin to feel that this exam is a necessity.
I think you are not.
Pl dont make lite of useful comments
I know what ultra vires means, for heaven's sake. I also know that it's tragic that somebody aiming to practice law doesn't know that it's ultra vires, and not ultravirus. That's what the comment means.
As for your next question, a technical reading of the Advocates Act would suggest that an amendment by the legislature is required before the BCI can conduct a Bar Examination. However, the BCI relies upon a distinction between "enrollment" and "practice" to argue that the the provisions of the Act do not apply to a post-enrollment exam. It's arguable both ways.

I have nothing to do with Rainmaker. I am just a public-spirited citizen concerned at the lack of knowledge (of both law and grammar) that seems to plague the Lawyers of Tomorrow.
Sudeer, not Suddhir.
Sudeer's case did not deal with the distinction between "practice" and "enrollment". Consequently, the proposition is arguable both ways. The BCI's argument is buttressed by the language of S. 49(1)(ah) of the Act, which clearly vests in it the power to regulate conditions of "practice".
Furthermore, your statement that the language is clear and leaves no space for arguments against it has been rejected by two judges of the Hon'ble Sup Ct in their order dated 14th December 2009 in BCI v. Bonie Fie Law College. I think you should take a look at that.
Regarding S 49(1)(ah) u will finf the fore words of the section says that subject to the Advocates Act. So if rules r made out the purview which the AAct has provided the BCI to play for then such rules r called Ultra-Vires. Sir u will certainly kn wot excessive delegation means.
Regar5ding Sudheer/Sudhir u will find, sir, the ration says no pre-enrollment constrains can be put....which doesnt in anyway mean post-enrollment contains can be put.
Rules can be made as to who can practice ....and when practicing rt can be ceased on professional misconduct.
I think sir u will understand the situation now.. Just tell me sir whether or not u think it to be justified in keeping in abeyance a batch so that the authority can get prepared to tk the exam... for a span of 1 year.?
It's morally unjustified, of course. Whether or not it is legally tenable is a different matter entirely.
His intentions to improve the quality of bar can't be doubted, but his modus operandi is really really bad and a large majority of law graduates of the country 'll agree with me..
He has still time left to take a good decision..
To end this so called AIBE which is totally unnecessary and useless in the first place and save the dignity of his otherwise respected personality and the high position, he holds..
regards
i wish to clarify tht there is a big difference and if you dont agree kindly chk the blackstones disctionary on law - all correct meaning will be found thr.
i dont mean to attack any reputation of any person but just pointing out a small factual error. there is not only ultra virus - but there is infra virus also, althoug that word is not used much these days
Merely by trying to carve out a distinction between enrolement and practice the bar council of india can't assume jurisdiction(power) to do what it is not competant to do.While the bar council of india not being competant to conduct the AIBE before enrolement it can't conduct it in the garb of regulating practice.A 3 hour and 30 minutes test can't be taken as a touchstone to decide as to whether a person is competant to practice law or not.
I hope BCI conducts a strict exam. I am hoping for a pass percentage of not more than 15%
Just curious !
AND that way u could hv earned ur livelihood becoz i think in practice u were a failure...becoz u can judge others but unfortunately u cant judge urself..
