Yajas Sen’s previous petition on CLAT 2025 results

Yajat Sen had previously also filed a writ petition (civil) 4375/2025 where he challenged question number 79 of the master booklet. He argued that the question was ‘out of syllabus’ as it required “prior legal knowledge”. However, the Delhi HC court had rejected his petition citing, “Though we appreciate the arguments rendered by the petitioner-inperson, yet we are not inclined to interfere with the objections raised qua Question no.79 of the Master Booklet. This Court is not inclined to interfere for the reason that the petitioner-in-person never objected at all when the respondent/Consortium had provided a window period for raising such objections post publication of the provisional answer key. This lacunae/default propels this Court to not interfere in the final answer key as declared by the respondent/Consortium, lest it may have a deleterious effect and work to the disadvantage of the candidates who may have attempted and given the correct answers…”

Delhi HC to also hear Ayanna Yadav’s plea regarding CLAT 2025

Another writ petition that is listed for hearing is one from Ayanna Yadav. The writ petition (civil) 3369/2025 argued that the candidate was not allowed to underline passages in the question paper which affected the candidate’s performance. This matter is listed as item number 27 in the Delhi HC advance cause list for May 26, 2025. However, this petition does not challenge the CLAT 2025 answer key like the previous one. It has been filed against the Union of India and ORS.

Questions related to CLAT

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to CLAT ?

Hello,

While NLUs are costly, you can still pursue government-funded law education through state-funded universities and their affiliated colleges that accept CLAT scores, such as institutes like Banaras Hindu University and Aligarh Muslim University.

I hope it will clear your query!!

It is always better to take the CLAT exam right after Class 12 if your goal is to build a career in law, because CLAT UG is specifically designed for admission into integrated five-year law programs like BA LLB, BCom LLB, or BBA LLB. Appearing after Class 12 saves you time, as you complete both graduation and law together in a single course. On the other hand, if you first complete graduation and then plan for law, you will not be eligible for CLAT UG but instead for CLAT PG, which is meant for admission into LLM programs. This path takes longer, because you first spend three or four years on graduation and then add another three years in an LLB program if you choose not to go for an integrated course. So, if you are already sure about pursuing law as your career, writing CLAT right after Class 12 is the smarter and time-saving option, while writing it after graduation makes sense only if you are considering higher studies in law or a shift in career later.

For CLAT, the most important topics are from  Legal Reasoning, Current Affairs & GK, the Indian Constitution, English Language, Quantitative Techniques and Logical Reasoning. For a brief detail you can go through the following link: https://law.careers360.com/articles/clat-important-topics

Thank You.

Hi dear candidate,

Both the colleges Maharaja Agrasen (MAIMS) or Gitarattan (GIBS) are affiliated to IP University and allows admission either by CLAT or IPU CET Law. Without either of these exams, your admission is NOT accepted there. You can try looking for management quota seats in these colleges if you have got good marks in 12th class.
