- The Bar Council of India (BCI) has approved Kerala’s proposal to reserve two supernumerary seats for transgender students in all state law colleges.
- The decision followed a Kerala High Court directive issued on October 24, 2025.
- The Kerala government had proposed this measure on August 6, 2025, for both three-year and five-year LLB programmes.
- The case originated from a transgender candidate who qualified in the Kerala Law Entrance Examination (KLEE) 2025 but was denied admission.
- The approval aligns with the Supreme Court’s NALSA judgment (2014) and the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019.
