The Bar Council of India has eased enrolment norms for law graduates facing attendance shortages, NDTV reports. The arrangement applies only to students whose academic session was still ongoing when the Delhi High Court delivered its judgment on November 3, 2025.
It further covers students who were later protected by a Supreme Court order dated July 21, 2026. The measure is therefore limited to this defined group and does not represent a blanket relaxation for all law graduates with attendance shortages. The source does not specify the revised enrolment requirements or the number of students affected.
Claims that the Bar Council has opened the door for every law graduate with poor attendance would go beyond the reported facts. So would treating the decision as proof that attendance rules no longer matter. The arrangement is tied to a particular court-timeline and protected group. The useful test is whether the Bar Council publishes clear eligibility criteria and the number of graduates admitted under it.
