As mentioned by honorable Adv Shashank sir about the 2017 time table of JEE MAINS drawing the analogy of the same with CLAT 2021 without considering the fact that JEE MAINS is not one-time exam. In 2017 two or three attempts were given to JEE aspirants unlike the only one attempt given to CLAT aspirants. Let me add another analogy with the other prominent exam NEET - Recently Education ministry had delayed NEET to as far as 1 Aug 2021 for students to compensate the loss accrued due to situations in 2020 and to prepare better , If the Govt can postpone an exam for betterment of students of NEET then what s hindering the consortium to do so?. Also the consortium had gone so far in previous year to postpone CLAT 2020 from 7 September to 28th September just because only one state (West Bengal had imposed the lockdown) to prevent anxiety in minds of students and for smooth conduction of CLAT creating the benchmark of consortium as a student friendly Org. Now this time its not only
