To the Consortium of National Law Universities, CLAT 2027 Convenor and all concerned authorities,

We, the CLAT 2027 aspirants, are raising serious concerns regarding allegations of the CLAT question paper being leaked and sold through Telegram.

Last year, during CLAT 2026, allegations emerged that the question paper had been circulated on Telegram before the examination. The matter eventually reached the Supreme Court of India. During the hearing on January 7, 2026, the Supreme Court questioned why the petitioners had approached it so late, asking why they had waited until December 16 when the alleged leak had been reported on December 6.

We are now facing similar concerns ahead of CLAT 2027.

Telegram groups and individuals are once again claiming to possess and sell the upcoming CLAT question paper in exchange for money. More concerningly, an individual claiming to be involved in these activities has allegedly stated that they leaked the paper last year and intend to do it again this year.

Screen recordings, screenshots and digital communications containing these claims are available and warrant immediate investigation.

Thousands of students across India have spent months and years preparing for this examination. We have invested our time, money and hard work with the expectation that every candidate will receive an equal and fair opportunity.

We cannot allow another year of uncertainty and allegations surrounding the integrity of this examination.

WHY WE ARE RAISING THIS NOW

Last year, the Supreme Court questioned why the matter had not been brought forward earlier. This year, we are raising our concerns BEFORE the examination, while there is still an opportunity for authorities to investigate and prevent any potential compromise.

We do not want to wait until the examination is over, the results are declared and thousands of students are left questioning whether they were given a fair opportunity.

OUR DEMANDS

We sincerely urge the Consortium of National Law Universities and the relevant authorities to:

Immediately investigate the Telegram groups, individuals and accounts claiming to possess and sell the CLAT 2027 question paper.
Examine the available screenshots, screen recordings and digital evidence, including claims regarding the alleged CLAT 2026 paper leak.
Involve appropriate cybercrime and law-enforcement agencies to identify and investigate those involved.
Verify whether the CLAT 2027 question paper has been compromised or accessed without authorisation.
Implement and review strict security measures throughout the question-paper preparation, printing, transportation, storage and distribution process.
Issue an official statement addressing these allegations and informing students about the preventive steps being taken.
Take appropriate legal action if any attempt to leak, sell or distribute confidential examination material is established.
OUR APPEAL

We are not asking for special treatment. We are asking for a fair examination.

Every student deserves an equal opportunity to secure admission to a National Law University through their hard work and merit. No student should have an unfair advantage through access to confidential examination material.

We urge the Consortium, relevant authorities, the Supreme Court of India and the media to take notice of these concerns.

Please investigate these allegations NOW. Ensure that the CLAT 2027 question paper remains secure and that the examination is conducted fairly and transparently.

LAST YEAR, THE QUESTION WAS WHY STUDENTS DID NOT RAISE THEIR CONCERNS EARLIER. THIS YEAR, WE ARE RAISING THEM BEFORE THE EXAMINATION. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE.

Thousands of students are counting on the authorities to protect the integrity of CLAT 2027.

OUR HARD WORK DESERVES A FAIR EXAMINATION. PROTECT CLAT 2027.
