The focus will be on practical knowledge. Dr. Sanjula Thanvi, Dean (Law) of Rajasthan University, says that before the implementation of the semester system under the Bar Council of India and NEP, the examination was conducted once in a year. After implementing the semester system, the examination will be held twice. Earlier, five out of ten questions had to be attempted. Now the paper is divided into Part-1 and Part-2. Earlier Cyber, Computer and Competition Law were not subjects. From this year itself, three new criminal laws have been added along with internship in the last year.
Also the exam pattern has been changed. There will also be special focus on practical knowledge after going to court. So that in future, you will not have to face any kind of problem if you become a judicial officer or get appointed to any legal related post.
