NLIU Bhopal: New vs Old allocations
NLIU Bhopal: New vs Old allocations

NLIU Bhopal appears to have dropped 26 unreserved state seats, instead increasing the all India unreserved category by 26 seats.

Legally India had reported yesterday that a number of Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2015 students resident in Madhya Pradesh were shunted out of NLIU to a lower-preference college in the second allocation round.

Legally India could not confirm at the time of going to press how this would affect CLAT college allocations, if at all.

The new allocation was quietly published in a new PDF late yesterday at the following link:

Legally India has prepare a comparison of the previous and the new table above.

Unless this is another good up, it will be great and will help NLIU doing even better. This was the biggest handicap.

Is that allowed under the NLIU Act? or did they do it to quietly cover up for the goof-up in allotments?

This Domicile was the only reason why NLIU started losing ground to NUJS. This is one of the best decisions taken by the Admin in recent times.

Whatever the merits, and leaving procedural proprietary aside, its a ridiculous move to change the categorisation of seats AFTER the prospectus was issued, applications invited and exam conducted. Looks like a matter of time before someone takes NLIU to court for this.

While the general [intended] populace may applaud this move, one wonders what of those 16 [State Reserved] who had paid the 50,000 and locked their seats when (wrongly) told that they were allotted NLIU? CLAT, IIT JEE, AIPMT...

This is simply ridiculous and frustrating. There is a claim, of brain drain, but why is that so surprising with poor pathetic pedagogy, terrible tests [mismanaged], inter alia...
Shame.

How did pedagogy get involved here; or is that the big word for today?

Okay!
This is a decision in favor of NLIU's future.
But why now?
When 2nd list is out.
They didn't mention it in CLAT brochure or in break up seats.
Not even a notice was put up on the website.
This decision can be challenged in court of law and i assume it will be.
