What is KLEE 2022 Exam Date? When will CEE Kerala Release Kerala Law Entrance Exam Application Form This Year?

Commissioner for Entrance Examination will conduct KLEE 2022 for admission to 5 years LLB, 3 years LLB and LLM courses. What will be KLEE 2022 exam date and when will the application process start is something bothering the candidates.

Until 2020, the KLEE dates were informed to the general public in the months of January-February via a press release. But in 2021, the press release informing the dates was released quite late, in June. This disruption occurred due to the changes in the admission timeline affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

But this year the press release was expected to be released as usual informing the KLEE exam date and details in January/February. However, we are in the last week of February and the KLEE 2022 notification/press release has yet not been issued by CEE Kerala.

Seems like candidates have to wait longer for KLEE 2022 exam date and application forms to release.
