Commenting on the NLAT 2020 question circulating on the internet, the university said that it is very much possible that some candidates “copied the questions and circulated this on some messaging apps/ emails after logging in.”
Copying questions is a malpractice, but it doesn’t sully the integrity of the test

However, it sought to calm the nerves of test takers by stressing on the point that the questions were available to all candidates after login.
Those indulging in unfair practice will be tracked
The notice stressed that NLSIU has a robust technology in place to track a candidate’s answers and behaviour patterns and those with unusual behaviour would be scrutinised and disqualified, if needed.
Fresh exam conducted for candidates who couldn’t take the exam on Sept 12 due to technical problems
The institute conducted fresh exams for candidates who had complained of technical difficulties, when the exam was conducted originally on September 12. The additional exams, UG Slot 4 and PG Slot 2, were conducted on September 14.
Following the exam, questions papers were released for the UG and PG programmes. Meanwhile, provisional NLAT 2020 answer keys were also released.
