Constitution bench of the #SupremeCourt Constitution Bench to deliver verdict on the petitions challenging the validity of the All India Bar Exam #AIBE Image
The three main issues which the judgment will answer are:

Can the Bar Council of India (BCI) prescribe a pre-enrolment exam as a condition precedent for enrolment?

Can BCI prescribe pre-enrolment training in terms of its training rules issued in 1995?

@barcouncilindia #AIBE
The last issue for consideration was: If a pre-enrolment exam is not permitted, can BCI prescribe a post-enrolment exam in alignment with Section 49 (1) (ah) of Advocates Act, 1961?

Gujarat High Court reserves orders in a petition by Gujarat University challenging direction to furnish copies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's degree certificate to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal

#NarendraModi @PMOIndia @ArvindKejriwal #GujaratHighCourt
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta for the University argued before bench of Justice Biren Vaishnav.

SG: There is nothing to hide as the degree is there in public domain, on social media etc. But we cannot be compelled to disclose the information.
@PMOIndia

#GujaratHighCourt
SG: We cannot be asked to furnish the information to satisfy someone's childish and irresponsible curiousity. Also, it should be noted that the info sought has nothing to do with his (Narendra Modi's) role as a public figure.

L Victoria Gowri's appointment as #MadrasHighCourt judge brought up in #RajyaSabha Image
TMC MP @jawharsircar on Law Ministry stating that differences of opinion between executive and judiciary are mutually reconciled: So am I to understand that all differences are mutually reconciled?... Image
...And in the same sentence you have used the words, "Only the appropriate person is appointed as a judge". Do you consider Victoria Gowri's appointment to really (be of) an appropriate person? One who has been accused in public of casteist remarks, of remarks against minorities?
