The Delhi High Court will resume hearing the cases referring to the CLAT 2025 results today April 9, 2025.

The bench stated during Monday's hearings that in order to prevent such mistakes in the exam, the Consortium of NLUs should "have better paper setters in the future."

The Consortium of National Law Universities' (NLUs') legal representative was instructed by the court to submit a counter-affidavit in two weeks.
