The Bombay High Court has directed the Director, Higher Education, Maharashtra, for the Common Entrance Test to admit a law aspirant to the three-year LLB course and said the denial of admission had no ‘logical justification’. A division bench of Justice Ranjit More and Justice Bharati Dangre granted relief to one Aakash Vedak, a 22-year-old graduate who secured provisional admission to the LLB course but the admission was abruptly denied on the basis of his final-year graduation results. The rule do not specify whether candidate is from old or new pattern since a candidate become eligible for admission to LLB degree course if he has completed his graduation or post­graduation any faculty/discipline of knowledge of any University in Maharashtra established by an Act of parliament or by State Legislature or National Institution recognized as deemed University and therefore instead of prescribing a criteria prevalent in Mumbai University as to old/ new course, the rules prescribed that a candidate must possess 45% marks for all the parts of degree examination taken together.” Thus, the court concluded that the denial of admission was erroneous.
