MANY students are interested in becoming lawyers, but there are problems.

It takes five years to get a LLB law degree. However, if a graduate, who has already spent four years in college, wants to to go for a law degree, he will still have to go for a three-year LLB course because a two-year LLB course after graduation has not been introduced in Pakistan like it has in the UK.

I request the Sindh government to save a valuable year of youths and introduce fully-funded Bar-at-Law scholarships.
