The Madhya Pradesh High Court has sought a response from the Consortium of National Law Universities (NLU) following a petition contesting several aspects of the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) PG 2025. The petition challenges the accuracy of the final answer key, the imposition of hefty objection fees, and the limited window for raising concerns.
A judicial bench emphasized that while the petitioner, a test taker from the December 1 examination, did not file objections earlier due to the steep ₹1,000-per-objection fee, the legitimacy of selections based on the final key would remain provisional until the case is resolved. The Consortium has been urged to respond promptly to minimize uncertainty.
The petitioner also criticized the exam’s ₹4,000 application fee and cited errors in the provisional key, claiming a lack of transparency in the final version. Originally, he approached the Supreme Court, which redirected him to the High Court.
The case will continue on January 8, 2025, as the debate over affordability and fairness in CLAT PG exams unfolds.
