The Maharashtra State Human Rights Commission (MSHRC), in a rare move, has taken a suo moto cognisance of the chaos over the Mumbai University's law examination result. The action was taken after a student scored 0 in a paper and was on the verge of losing an academic year.

Kajal Patil, a third-year student of G J Advani Law College, had to apply for re-examination as she missed the re-evaluation deadline because the MU had assured her that the correct result will be released soon. Patil said she might have missed her last semester exam, which starts on June 11, if she hadn't applied for a re-test for the Public Interest Litigation (PIL) paper.
