Let`s not produce law degrees, but law graduates in the true spirit”—with this intention, a law professor from the city has sent a twenty-six-page representation to the varsity and Bar Council of India, raising concerns about poor attendance of students in law colleges and the failure to take disciplinary action against defaulting students.
