NEW DELHI: The process of weeding out fake lawyers has begun across the country. Bar Council of India chairman Manan Kumar Mishra told TOI on Wednesday that results of an ongoing verification process may surprise many and far exceed the initial estimates that over 30% lawyers have fake degrees.

"We have implemented the BCI Certificate and Place of Practice (Verification) Rules 2015 and have now made it mandatory for all lawyers to re-register in a new format where they have to compulsorily submit all their certificates starting class X board results," the BCI chairman said.

These certificates will then be verified with respective universities and boards and the entire verification process is likely to be completed by 2016. All lawyers who have not practised in the last five years, will remain advocates but will not be allowed to practise.
