Petitioners have challenged the CLAT 2025 today (5th Dec) provisional answer key in the Supreme Court, citing errors in 12 questions and inadequate time to raise objections. They seek a stay on results and admission counseling, criticizing the Rs 1,000 fee for objections despite a prior Rs 4,000 exam fee. Final results are due December 10.
The Supreme Court today has mandated that State Bar Councils and the Bar Council of India cannot charge lawyers more than Rs 600 for enrolment fees, in accordance with Section 24(1)(f) of the Advocates Act. This decision aims to make the enrolment process accessible and affordable, consistent with the Act. The ruling allows charges for legal aid services, but not during enrolment.
