CONCERNED about not being able to adhere to the University Grant Commission (UGC) guidelines and Maharashtra State University Act about mandatory teaching LLB courses for 90 days and being compelled to wrap the law portion in 45 days instead, an associate professor of a law college wrote a letter to state chief secretary and commissioner, Common Entrance Test (CET) cell, to highlight flaws in the system.

Dr Sharmila Ghuge, associate professor at Jitendra Chauhan College of Law, Vile Parle, wrote an over-twenty-five-page letter seeking that the LLB admission process be streamlined to avoid delay in the commencement of the academic year for the three-year LLB and five-year BLS/LLB courses in July every year.
