CLAT UG 2025 HC Hearing: Final Judgment Soon; Counselling Dates to be Notified
The Delhi High Court completed the CLAT UG 2025 hearing on April 9. The Division Bench, comprising Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela, heard all the petitions concerning the CLAT UG exam one by one. However, the division bench reserved the judgement for a later date. The Consortium of National Law Universities is also expected to notify the CLAT 2025 counselling dates soon. The CLAT PG hearings scheduled to be held on April 21. After the CLAT 2025 UG hearings on April 9, the Delhi HC will remain closed for the week on account of holidays.
CLAT UG Cases Heard in the April 7-9 Hearings
The Delhi HC conducted the CLAT UG 2025 hearings across 3 days from April 7 to 9, 2025. 13 cases related to the CLAT 2025 were heard one by one, and the petitioners were allowed to put forth their arguments. Senior Advocate Rajashekhar Rao appeared on behalf of the Consortium of NLUs and argued that courts should not interfere in academic matters donning the hat of an expert.
The cases relating to CLAT PG were not heard. The CLAT PG hearing will be conducted separately on April 21.
What are the CLAT 2025 UG Cases About?
The CLAT UG cases are related to mistakes in the CLAT 2025 final answer key published by the Consortium of NLUs, which impacts the accuracy of the CLAT 2025 results.
One of the petitions by candidate Yajat Sen is about 4 questions in legal reasoning requiring prior knowledge of law to answer them, when the Consortium has clearly stated that no prior knowledge of law is required.
The well-known Aditya Singh Vs Consortium of NLUs is related to answers to five questions in Set A, for which answers are allegedly incorrect in the CLAT 2025 final answer key.
Another petition was about mistake in a question pertaining to gender gap in the wages paid to men and women.
Two petitions were unrelated to the CLAT 2025 answer key - candidate Kuber Swami filed a petition to be considered under the OBC category instead of the General category, while candidate Ayana Yadav filed a petition as she was not allowed to underline passages in the question paper during the exam.
What was the Delhi HC Verdict in the April 7 to 9 Hearing?
Among the cases heard during the CLAT UG HC hearing, two of the petitions were found to be not related to mistakes in the CLAT 2025 answer key. The two petitions have been segregated from the rest of the petitions, and hearings for them will be conducted separately. The two cases will not affect the outcome of the CLAT 2025 revised results in any way.
The remaining petitions have been clubbed together, and the Delhi HC has reserved its judgement to be given at a later date. During the CLAT UG 2025 hearings, the Delhi HC stated its intention to resolve the cases before the vacation started. The judgement in the matter is expected to be given soon.
When Will CLAT 2025 Counselling Start?
The Consortium of NLUs will notify the CLAT 2025 counselling dates as soon as the CLAT 2025 cases are resolved. The CLAT PG hearing is scheduled to be conducted on April 21. Given these hearing dates, the Consortium of NLUs is expected to publish the revised results and restart the CLAT 2025 counselling tentatively in the last week of April 2025 or the first week of May 2025.
Whether or not candidates will be allowed to register for counselling and submit fresh NLU preferences remains to be seen.
