colleges/Institutions and administrative wings of the University.

of students of NMU as well as society. The University has a central

Law Section
Background:
A number of court cases in various courts (Hon'ble supreme Court, Hon'ble High Court of
Judicature of Mumbai, bench at Aurangabad; Hon'ble University and College Tribunal, Aurangabad;
Hon'ble State Consumer Forum, Mumbai; Hon'ble District Civil Court, Industrial and Labour Court
at Jalgaon, Dhule and Nandurbar District) were admitted against the University, regarding
Admissions, Eligibility, Examination, termination of lecturers, reduction in rank, treating
surplus staff, transfer etc. For conducting all these cases on behalf of the University, the
law section was established in July 1996.
Functions:
Law section deals with all cases in the above mentioned various Courts. While some of the
cases are conducted by the Law Officer himself, important and complicated cases are conducted by
the senior distinguished Advocates, from the panel of Advocates appointed by the Hon'ble
Vice-Chancellor in consultation with the University Management Council.
Law section is also involved in the process of framing Statutes and Ordinances. It also offers
legal opinion to most of the sections according to the rules and regulations.
Success rate and economy of operations:
The University has emerged successful against most of the cases filed against it. For example,
the percentage of winning against cases regarding Unfair means / mal-practices in examinations
is about 95%. University's excellent winning percentage is due to its abiding faith in
implementation of rules, regulations, team work, excellent co-operation from all sections,
besides ability of Law section to put the facts before the Hon'ble Courts.
Generally, the University does not appoint an advocate for the appeals filed against it in the
Hon'ble College Tribunal, Aurangabad. The Law Officer deals with such cases and thereby brings
economy in the expenditure. In some urgent and important cases, the section prepares written
statements, affidavits and submits it to University Advocate. In this way, within a stipulated
time, not only we comply with all important matters, but also bring economy in the expenditure.
The fees paid to the appointed Advocates border to honorarium. In fact, some eminent Advocates
do not charge any fee. In this way, we have reduced the expenses in dealing with legal matters.
From the following profile, it is evident that our legal expenses are optimum.

Present status of the cases:
During the least 2-3 years, percentage of admission of cases in various courts has increased
due to increase in the students population and number of colleges. Out of total 260 cases admitted
in various Courts in the last 3 years, 136 have been decided in favour of the University, 51 disposed
off for non-appearance of the party, 9 decided against us and 64 cases are pending.
Motto:
- To avoid unnecessary litigation by abiding the rules and regulations scrupulously.
- To protect the interests of University and students.
- To handle the cases speedily by giving appropriate information to Courts and Counsel
for justice in time and economically.
- To consider the outcome of Court cases as a guideline for future functioning.
