The Supreme Court extends CLAT accessibility nationwide, allowing visually challenged candidates to give answers on computers. New guidelines ensure equal opportunity and inclusive exam participation across India.
Today, On 9th April, The Delhi High Court questioned whether it is reasonable to expect a Class 12 student to have knowledge of Contract Law while assessing the CLAT 2025 UG paper. This came up during hearings on multiple petitions highlighting alleged errors in the exam. The petitioners argued that the paper included concepts beyond the expected syllabus. The Court has now concluded the hearings and reserved its judgment.
CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) is India’s most popular law entrance exam, with over 60,000 students appearing every year. Although there are more than 1,800 law colleges in the country, most aspirants dream of securing a seat in the top 26 National Law Universities (NLUs). These NLUs are regarded as the best institutes for legal education in India.
The Supreme Court will hear the Consortium of National Law Universities’ plea on January 15 to transfer multiple cases about CLAT 2025 results from various high courts. The controversy arose after a Delhi High Court ruling identified errors in the exam answer key, sparking widespread disputes among candidates and calls for result revisions.
