He replied to unstarred question related to total number of National Law Schools in the country and the number of students studying in the said schools.
The National Law Universities (NLUs) have been established through respective State enactments and the Central Government has no role in the matter.
The structure of the academic year at different NLUs are designed in such way that allows students to undertake research and internships for the purpose of gaining professional practical experience, thereby inculcating a holistic understanding of the law in students.
