LUCKNOW, May 21 -- Lucknow University has announced implementation of provisions of the National Education Policy (NEP) in LLB three-year and five-year integrated courses from the current academic session. The university said students currently enrolled in the second semester of the first year of LLB would also come under the new policy framework. Under the NEP provisions related to examination results, all students of LLB three-year and five-year courses will now be promoted from odd semesters to even semesters. "Aligning legal education with modern global standards and smoothing the academic path for students was necessary. The provision of promotion from odd to even semesters under the NEP will provide great relief to the students. With the implementation of this policy, the future of the students studying in the current session will be brighter, more secure and multifaceted," vice-chancellor prof JP Saini said. The university administration said instructions had been issued to the Faculty of Law and heads of departments to finalise the curriculum structure and promotion guidelines. htc...
