The Supreme Court has transferred all CLAT-related cases pending before various high courts to the Delhi High Court. The court initially intended to transfer these cases to the Punjab and Haryana High Court for early disposal. However, in today's hearing, the Bench of Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna and Justices PV Sanjay Kumar and KV Viswanathan passed the order to list all such cases before Delhi HC on March 3.
In this regard, it directed all High Courts to send the case papers to the Delhi High Court within 7 days.
Students across the country have challenged both CLAT UG and PG results and final answer keys in various high courts.
The CLAT UG results-related cases are pending before Delhi HC, Rajasthan and Punjab and Haryana High courts, whereas the MP High Court and Bombay High Court had given interim orders on CLAT PG result, making it subject to the outcome of these writ petitions.
In this regard, the Delhi High Court has already given a major judgment; when January 20, a Single judge, Justice Jyoti Singh asked the consortium to revisit the UG merit list.
This order was later sustained in the division bench of Delhi HC. The consortium was asked to accept the single judge judgment. Following this, it took the matter to the Supreme Court.
Now, as the matter is again going to be listed before Delhi HC, the previous judgment asking the consortium to revise CLAT UG results becomes relevant again. The CLAT UG results are likely to be revised once the Delhi HC takes up all cases; a revision either involving the two questions or all four questions raised by the petitioner, remains to be seen.
Regarding CLAT PG results, 12 questions were challenged in the Supreme Court along with objections against the exorbitant objection fee charged by Consortium.
The SC declined to entertain the plea stating that it cannot be the court of first instance, and asked the petitioner to move to a High Court. This matter went to the MP High Court, but now will be listed before Delhi HC along with all other cases. A revision in CLAT PG results where objections have been raised against 8-12 questions means, the merit lists will be changed significantly if the next hearing goes in favour of the petitioners.
Meanwhile, the delay in CLAT counselling means that not only the admission process of NLUs is getting delayed, but many other law colleges in India that depend on CLAT scores will also face delays in the admission process.
