On Thursday, the Supreme Court declined to intervene in the Delhi High Court’s decision to dismiss a petition filed by an OBC candidate who received AIR 182 seeking re-examination for the All India Law Entrance Test, 2020. (AILET-20).

“You got time for the exam, what is the grievance? Why do you raise the aspirations of these people? By filing the pleas, you raise aspirations. These are competitive exams, some make it, some people don’t make it. Sorry,” the bench of Justices SK Kaul and MM Sundresh remarked while dismissing the SLP.

The Counsel, who appeared on behalf of the student, claimed that the exam was not properly conducted, and that blank paper was not placed on the table. It was also the counsel’s contention that the petitioner had encountered several problems while administering the exam.

While dismissing the petition, the Delhi High Court Single Bench of Justice Jayant Nath stated, “The petitioners appear to have been given the full 90 minutes to complete the exam. Some of the students around them appear to have been having difficulties. That, in and of itself, cannot, in my opinion, be a reason to postpone the exam for the entire centre.”
