Himachal Pradesh High Court denies enrolment to LL.B graduate who got admission sans B.A degree

The Himachal Pradesh High Court has denied the enrolment of an LLB graduate who did not possess a Bachelor's degree (BA) as required by Bar Council rules. The graduate had completed LLB through correspondence without a BA degree, citing a provision allowing direct enrolment after 10+2 for integrated courses. However, the court held that LLB under the regular scheme mandates a prior BA degree. This decision reaffirms the requirement of BA degree for LLB enrolment under Bar Council regulations.
