Candidates looking to appear for the All India Bar Examination (AIBE) XX are facing difficulties in registering on the AIBE website, ahead of the October 28 deadline.

After signing up, the application portal does not allow users to go further with registration and uploading of documents.

[Update at October 27, 2:30 PM]: The registration application portal is operational. Applicants who were previously unable to proceed with the registration or document uploads are now able to complete their applications ahead of the October 28 deadline.

An applicant, who has been trying to register since yesterday, said that the helpdesk assured him that the technical glitch would be solved by 10 AM today.

Speaking with Bar & Bench, an AIBE helpdesk personnel stated,

"It is a technical issue the server is down, please wait until the end of the day, it will work then."

There has been no notification for extension of the registration date at the time of publication of this story.
