Maybe a Quadrilateral will make more sense but well firstly why not just include NLu Delhi because that’s what the trilateral defines. The top 3 colleges of the Indian subcontinent for legal education are NLS , NAlsar and NLu Delhi as stated by every law firm partner and rankings. There should be a new trilateral and the purana trilateral can be continued if Nujs wants. But there should be an original trilateral which comprises of NLS nalsar and nlu Delhi.
NLUD isn't top anywhere. Only their trolls claim that. If they wish to be part of the mainstream, then let them join CLAT first. Until they do, they are no different from the likes of Symbi. Not really an NLU.
As far as separate entrance exams go, which was what the comparison was about, it is not wrong. What NLUD does with AILET is plain and simple a bad practice. I have no doubt about its quality as an institution. However, this is still a practice that should be called out for the benefit of all law aspirants throughout the country. It shouldn't be justified or glorified like the trolls try to do here.
Nulldies on hand wants to Escape the "clutches" of the consortium and on the other they also want to be part of the tier 1 NLU club. Pick a struggle?
