As many as 785 candidates were enrolled as lawyers through an online function organised by the Bar Council of Kerala (BCK) on Saturday.
The council took to the online mode through a videoconferencing portal in view of the restrictions on public gathering that are part of steps to contain the spread of COVID-19.
BCK chairman K.P. Jayachandran administered the oath to candidates who joined the function via videoconferencing. Advocate General C.P. Sudhakara Prasad delivered a special address. The enrolled candidates will be issued certificates by post, says a BCK press release.
