He has filed a case for partition of the ancestral property.
When it will come to notice of the court that the property has been gifted then partition suit will not be maintainable.
In such a circumstance, can not a complaint be made to the State Bar Council to take disciplinary action against such advocate for clearly wasting his clients' and court's time and money and bringing disrepute to the profession?
UGC Regulations, 2022 replaced the old 2016 regulations adding a new category to allow direct PhD after 4 year UG Course.
But most of the universities still are following 2016 regulations and have not updated the same,
I do not want to do an LLM. I rightly qualify according to the rules, and I should be allowed to enroll in PhD. I want the universities to follows the Rules.
What to do in such a situation?
Now after a month of emailing and calling up numerous universities I found that Christ University follows the rules and I am eligible. Plus they allow part time PhD.
But the thing is when they released their vacancy, it was only for Pune and Bangalore cities not the NCR christ university.
I was looking forward to going to NCR. I have many friends there and advocates under whom I can work while doing PhD.
I dont know anyone in Bangalore to share rooms with or any advocate under whom I can work, it is an unfamiliar place.
I talked to other universities they said they have draft rules of new PhD regulations and will update but did not say when.
I asked christ university they said they might release the vacancy in december 2025.
I am lost, I need counsel ðŸ˜
what do I do?
Can someone not file a PIL urging the court to direct UGC to tell the universities to follow the rules.
I do not have money for it.
Plus I am pracitising in court. I cannot go back to studying.
But then I worked so hard for UGC exam.
I dont want to give an exam again.
They do not accept UGC scores as they are outside the purview of UGC.
You can either get JRF or PhD only. Not asst. Prof.
So no, it would not be redundant to remove LLM altogether.
Tier 1 NLUs and IITs have only amended their rules to align with UGC rules.
Rest are not aware of this rule I think
Also my JRF has a validity of 2 years. How long will I fight for this? My JRF will lapse, I need a speedy recovery.
Although I am going to do what you suggested
So on the basis of that I gave NET exam and worked my ass off to secure a JRF.
Now still most of the universities are releasing PhD notifications with compulsory masters, they still have not amended their PhD rules accordingly.
Please someone advice what to do?
