Supreme Court Stays Delhi High Court Ruling on Law Students' Attendance Requirement
The Supreme Court has stayed the Delhi High Court's November 2025 ruling that barred law colleges from preventing students with low attendance from taking exams. The bench, comprising Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta, noted that National Law Universities are facing challenges due to students resisting mandatory attendance. The court questioned the Bar Council of India’s delay in filing the petition and scheduled further hearings for July 21. The stay applies prospectively while related petitions remain pending.
