Questions are once again being raised by law students, college faculty and student unions regarding the seriousness with which Mumbai University (MU) conducts law examinations. A day after thousands of LLB SEM 1 students appeared for the paper on labour law and industrial relations, they discovered that they discovered that almost the entire question paper followed the old syllabus instead of the changed syllabus, and repealed laws as notified by MU in June 2023.
A faculty of law, requesting anonymity said, "While the questions asked on strikes in Industrial Dispute Act, 1947, is not only out of syllabus but the said act does not even exist, in the given nomenclature, as the Industrial Dispute Act, is codified under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020. This also means that the MU paper setters have not considered the revised syllabus and the amended laws in the country, which the students were appraised and studied too."
