In this method, it is mandatory for the students to score 18 marks out of 60 and 12 marks out of 40. Law students will have to score 40 per cent in total for passing the examination. Students opine that this method will make it easy to pass the examination and is not productive.
Law Students have decided to protest against the university administration to oppose their decision. The protest will be held by the Student Law Council at the Kalina Campus.
Mumbai University has removed the circular which introduced the new examinations method. Also, there has been no clarity, if the students from the first or second year will be included in this.
