The resolution passed by the Bar Council of India (BCI) to allow final year students of 3-year and 5-year law courses to appear in online examinations has been put on hold for now.

The decision is pending before the Legal Education Committee headed by former Supreme Court judge, AP Mishra.

The resolution had also directed that students in intermediate semesters be promoted on the basis of previous years' performance and marks obtained in internal examination of the current year.
