Degree Not Enough, Govt For 'Test' To Practise Law
By ugeshji, Section News
LAW GRADUATES MUST CLEAR AN EXAM TO GET A LICENCE TO PRACTISE, ACCORDING TO A GOVT PROPOSAL
A law degree might not be enough for aspiring lawyers to don the black robe. The government proposes to make it mandatory for law graduates to clear an entry-level test to get a licence to practise. The law ministry has started talks with the Bar Council of India (BCI), the regulator for legal professionals in the country, following the Union cabinet's in-principle approval of its proposal earlier this month. "The Advocates Act, 1961, may need to be revisited in consultation with the senior members of the bar to consider reintroduction of mandatory apprenticeship and introduction of a qualifying exam for advocates before admission to the bar," says the proposal approved by the cabinet. The move follows repeated suggestions from the Supreme Court to the Centre to raise the standard of legal education and the profession in India. The government and judges of the Supreme Court and high courts discussed this on October 24 and 25. This was followed by a more detailed dialogue with jurists on December 5 and 6, during a roundtable consultation on improving legal education in the country.

"Once the systems are in place, we will have a capacity to predict monsoon region-wise quite correctly 15 days in advance," said a senior Planning Commission official.
The fine print of the data sharing agreement was worked out recently at a meeting of a joint committee of scientists from the two countries. A study by G.N. Goswami, director of Pune-based Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, had found between 1901 and 2004, the predictability of the monsoons has fallen from three days to one-and-a-half days. "This is because of higher frequency of extreme weather conditions and increased potential instability of the atmosphere," he said in a paper in Geophysical Research Letters in 2008. Increased instability happens because of higher concentration of green house gases in the atmosphere.
"To overcome the increased difficulty in predicting monsoons, a significant increase in efforts to improve models, observations and enhancement of computing power is required," the study said.
