Ahmedabad: Thousands
will appear for the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) exam Sunday
to enter national law universities. But those who have opted for
Gujarat National Law University will have to wait till the Gujarat
High Court rules on the reservation issue.
Chief Justice Bhaskar Bhattacharya and Justice J.B. Pardiwala have
issued notice to the central and Gujarat governments for not
keeping seats for Other Backward Classes, Dalits and tribals in
the Gujarat University.
The high court notice has also said the university can go ahead
with the admission test but the court order will have to be
accepted.
Of the Gandhinagar-based Gujarat National Law University's 160
seats, 120 are reserved for the central and the rest for Gujarat
quotas, said lawyer Amit Panchal for the petitioner.
The high court has asked all respondents to respond before June
14.
