BREAKING| No Postponement Of CLAT 2022 Exam Due To Agnipath Protests : NLU Consortium

There is no postponement of the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2022 due to the protests against the "Agnipath" recruitment scheme to armed forces, the Consortium of National Law Universities informed in a press release.

The Executive Committee of the Consortium of NLUs, after a review meeting held today evening, decided to go ahead with the CLAT 2022 exam as originally scheduled. The emergency meeting was held in view of the demands raised by several law school aspirants to defer the admission test in view of the widespread cancellation of trains, blocking of national highways and suspension of internet services in many states due to the violent Agnipath protests.

The press release read as follows :

"The Consortium of National Law Universities will conduct the Common Law Admission Test 2022 for BA LLB and LLM admissions on June 19th 2022, Sunday between 2-4 PM.
