The four major points highlighted in the petition are that :

The Present NLSIU Vice-Chancellor did not have requisite consent from the academic council for conducting a separate examination;

The reasons for conducting a separate test are whimsical and baseless;

The technical requirement of having a laptop and 1 Mbps of internet speed for taking home proctored examination, is onerous, arbitrary, discriminatory and illegal;

That the legitimate expectations of the students stand breached.

Prof Rao has urged the Supreme Court to:

quash the September 3 notification issued by NLSIU for the conduct of NLAT for NLSIU admissions this year;

quash NLSIU's notification regarding the technical requirements to writ NLAT;
