Quick Summary
The Bar Council of India has issued a new notification stating that from the All-India Bar Examination-XVI (AIBE-XVI) onwards, candidates will not be allowed to bring any books, notes, or study materials into the examination hall.

The exact reasons for this change are not explicitly stated, but speculation suggests it may be to increase the exam's difficulty and assess a deeper understanding of legal principles.
