Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed a writ petition challenging the National Law School of India University's decision to conduct a separate admission examination, the NLAT, instead of using the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). The court emphasized the importance of a unified admission process for legal education and directed that admissions should be conducted through CLAT to ensure fairness and transparency. The judgment reinforces the principle of standardized testing in legal education admissions.
