Intake for LLB to begin today amid pending litigation

Intake for LLB to begin today amid pending litigation

 MISSION ADMISSION TIMES NEWS NETWORK 

Ahmedabad : The admission process for state law colleges in Gujarat has been delayed due to an ongoing legal dispute between the govt and the Bar Council of India (BCI). However, the registration process for admission to all state law colleges will begin through the Gujarat Common Admission Services (GCAS) portal from Tuesday. The final decision regarding admissions is expected after the court hearing on Aug 27. Students who wish to pursue an LLB course after graduation have not been able to register because of the ongoing legal case. Recently, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) had submitted petitions to the Ahmedabad district collector following students’ protests. Nearly seven grant-in-aid colleges under Gujarat University and more than 35 grant-in-aid and private law colleges in the state have not given admissions to students yet.

 The high inspection fees set by the BCI have made it difficult for grant-in-aid colleges to sustain themselves, and the govt is unwilling to provide teachers to these colleges, sources said. Law college professors said that a final decision in the ongoing litigation has not been reached, with the next hearing scheduled for Aug 27. Despite student protests and demands for admission, the registration process for students wishing to pursue an LLB will commence on the GCAS portal on Tuesday (Aug 20). However, the duration of this registration period remains unclear.
