PATNA: Now, there will be a Super-25 in the city to coach students for the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). It will be run by some former judges of the Patna high court and retired district judges.
Four former HC judges on Sunday came together and announced to open an exclusive training institute in the city to assist Bihari students in getting admission to the country's premier law institutions through CLAT.
Justice Ghanshyam Prasad, Justice S S Mukherjee, Justice SC Jha and
Justice Mehfooz Alam, all retired judges of the HC, volunteered to render their services for training the CLAT aspirants from Bihar.
"A large number of retired district judges have also expressed their desire to train the aspirants," Justice Prasad said. "We will also impart free training to economically and socially weaker students. There would be altogether 25 students in one batch selected through admission test. Twenty per cent of the total seats will be reserved for economically and socially weaker students. But their selection would be subject to their merit," he said, adding the first batch would begin from July 1. "Our institute will not be a commercial one," he emphasized.
"Students of Bihar have merit and potential to excel in the field of law. But as there is no exclusive institute in Bihar to impart training for CLAT, the state has very poor representation in the country's premier law institutions," Justice Prasad said and added in the beginning, the proposed training institute would run from Kumar Tower on the Boring Canal Road.
