Supreme Court Reserves Verdict on Law Students' Attendance Rules Challenge
The Supreme Court has reserved its verdict on petitions challenging a Delhi High Court ruling that law students cannot be barred from exams solely for not meeting minimum attendance. The bench, comprising Justices Vikram Nath, Augustine George Masih, and Sandeep Mehta, allowed written submissions within two weeks. The case concerns attendance rules across recognized law institutions, with the Bar Council of India asked to reconsider mandatory attendance. The High Court emphasized avoiding stringent enforcement that causes student distress.
