Justice Krishna S. Dixit passed the order on a petition filed by Balachandar Krishnan, an aspirant to a seat in NLSIU through Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). Further hearing has been adjourned till August 13 as CLAT is scheduled to be held on August 22.
The petitioner contended that the government lacks legislative competence to provide horizontal reservation, either institutional or residence based, in unaided educational institutions. The legislature has the power only to provide vertical reservations as per the constitutional scheme.
