Dear Chinubhai,
There is no age limit for Death. In spite of it nobody wants to die early.
Coming to your question - whether there should be any age limit for learning - CERTAINLY NOT. But when there is limited seats available in that case there should be certain criteria to restrict the number of persons who seek admission.
When a man is alive and able to work, why he should be retired at certain age? Why cannot he be permitted to work till his death?
Therefore, there is nothing wrong if any age restriction is applied. All depends upon circumstances.

Few lines from News item:
Bar Council of India notification published in Government of India gazette number 284 dated October, 31, 2013, the upper age limit for candidates seeking admission to BA LLB five-year course and LLB three-year courses has been withdrawn.

When there is no age limit for practicing law, there should not be and there cannot be age limit for admission to a law college. The BCI has rightly withdrawn the age-limit prescribed by some State Bar Councils.
Legally, such restriction can be provided only through an amendment of the Advocates Act. Resolutions or Notifications of Bar Councils are unconstitutional.
Practically, there is hardly any law education in most of the colleges in Gujarat and, I understand, that similar situation prevails all over the country.
