It is applicable for BA, LLB (Hons) and LLM programmesIn a significant move, the National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bengaluru, for the first time has decided to reserve 25% of its seats to students from Karnataka for the 2021-2022 academic year. As many as 30 out of 120 seats under the BA, LLB (Hons) programme and 13 out of 50 seats under the LLM programme are reserved for Karnataka students. Separate seats have been marked under this category for students belonging to SC, ST, and general categories. The issue of 25% reservation for students from the State has not been without controversy. The High Court of Karnataka last year had struck down the National Law School of India (Amendment) Act, 2020, which provided 25% reservation of the total seats at the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) for students from Karnataka.
