On Friday, the Supreme Court allowed the National Law School of the University of India (NLSIU), Bengaluru, to conduct a separate entrance examination on Saturday, September 12. However, the court made it clear that the results will not be declared and court approval will not be accepted.
The Supreme Court was hearing the guilty plea brought by the former Vice Chancellor of the National Law School of the University of India (NLSIU) Bangalore, Professor Venkata Rao, challenging the decision to take the National Legal Aptitude Test ( NLAT).
Earlier this month, NLSIU, Bangalore, decided not to consider the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) for admissions to the five-year BA LL.B (Hons) integrated course for the 2020-21 academic year due to repeated postponement of the CLAT 2020 exam.
“If NLSIU is unable to complete admissions before the end of September 2020, it will inevitably result in a ‘Year Zero’ with no admission,” reads a notice issued by the varsity team.
The online registration process for the exam began on September 3 and ended on September 10.
