It looks like the Common Law Admission Test is no longer going to have any maximum age limit..A Division Bench of Justices Gopala Gowda and C Nagappan chose not to interfere with the recent decision of the Allahabad High Court wherein the High Court had done away with any age limit for writing the exam..The organising university, RMLNLU, had subsequently complied with the order while also approaching the Supreme Court..Senior Advocate Rakesh Munjal appeared for RMLNLU and argued that the University is empowered to fix a maximum age limit..The Bench was, however, not impressed..“What is the justification for the maximum age of 20 years. A brilliant student does not get the opportunity to give the exam, or fails before 20, he will not be able to give the exam.”.The Court proceeded to allow the petitioner to withdraw the petition with the liberty to approach the Allahabad High Court for review or recall of its judgment. The last date of registering for the CLAT is March 31, that is four days away.
