At the hearing, we pointed out to Shri S.Sri Ram, learned counsel for the petitioner that the same issue is pending consideration before the Supreme Court and on being directed by the Supreme Court, a meeting of the Vice-Chancellors and Directors of National Law School and other similar institutions was conveyed by the Ministry of Human Resources Department and some concrete proposals have been submitted to the Supreme Court. Shri S.Sri Ram submitted that he was not aware of this development. Be that as it may, in view of the pendency of similar matter before the Supreme Court, we do not consider it necessary to take up the matter in public interest and dispose of the writ petition leaving the petitioner free to intervene in the matter pending before the Supreme Court.
