Law Minister Salman Khurshid today made it clear that legal education will remain within the purview of Bar Council of India. Addressing a seminar organised by Indian Law Institute in New Delhi, he said the apex lawyers' body could decide best what is necessary in this area. Listing emerging challenges in the legal system like tribunalisation of law, staffing, training, infrastructure and in area of economics, the Law Minister said alternative dispute redressal mechanism should be explored to resolve disputes expeditiously.
He also urged the lawyers to use low cost Aakash tablet PC, which is being introduced for students, for effective use of technology in the legal system.
