NLU Delhi 50% State Reservation

In a significant move, National Law University, Delhi (NLU Delhi) had earlier announced 50% reservation for domicile students. The move aimed at providing more opportunities to students from Delhi, follows most other National Law Universities, which have kept seats reserved for the students of their respective states under various categories.

However, this decision to reserve 50% for the total seats for domicile students was challenged in the High Court of Delhi. The Hon’ble High Court of on 29th June 2020 has ordered that the "status quo ante as of previous academic year shall be maintained for making admissions to the B.A.LL.B.(Five Year Programme), LL.M.(One Year Programme) in NLU Delhi for the academic year 2020-21".
