In a major setback for a law student, the Bombay High Court directed the vice-chancellor to make a decision regarding the student’s admission. Allegedly, the student was denied admission to the LLM programme under the pretext of not submitting a state-level non-creamy layer (NCL) certificate.
Bhushan Walunj, who secured the ninth position in Mumbai University’s LLB program’s merit list, was excluded from the LLM admission process. Walunj claimed to have submitted a NCL certificate from the Central government, but his admission was rejected due to not possessing a state-level NCL certificate.
