It is very much required decision to restrict the age for admission to LLB as the young generation will be moulded efficiently through practice, where the interest , more patience is required for the one to practice , if age limit is more it would be very difficult to start the practice at the higher age , and also it gives a wide scope and more chance for the youngsters to attach to the legal field and practice.

this age relaxation should also be given to the PBORs of defence and para military forces as per the GOI direction for jobs after discharge from service. so that they can have some technical education in their hands for their living after discharge from service. some time this type of education are is not acquired by the PBORs due to service exegencie.
