    Yes, indeed it is. One can't become a judge until he has a law degree. That is the first eligibility for becoming a judge. You need to have a degree from any reputed law college in India. Otherwise, you can't become a judge. Either you pursue law after class 12th that is a 5-year law course. Or, if you are already a graduate, you can go for a 3-year Law course form DU or any other institute offering 3-year law course. Thereafter, you can give Judiciary exams and become a judge.
