Are Bare Acts allowed in AIBE 20 Exam? - Check in Details
Yes, Bare Acts are allowed in the AIBE 20 examination. The Bar Council of India (BCI) permits candidates to carry Bare Acts into the exam hall. Bare Acts are the exact texts of laws enacted by legislative bodies such as Parliament or State Legislatures. They contain the statutory provisions without any added commentary, notes, or interpretations.
The Bar Council of India has clarified that only Bare Acts in their original form are permitted during the AIBE exam. At the examination centre, invigilators thoroughly check all Bare Acts before allowing entry. They specifically look for any signs of handwritten notes, explanatory comments, or loose papers. If a Bare Act contains any additional material, it is considered non-compliant. In such cases, candidates can be denied entry into the exam hall, as the rules strictly permit only clean, original Bare Acts without modifications.

Candidates should ensure they carry the latest and relevant Bare Acts. Here is the list of must-carry Bare Acts for the AIBE 20 Examination:
