1- AILET is an exam only for NLU Delhi students. Though it is tougher than CLAT this exam has only relevance for NLU Delhi, as no other NLU or private college accepts AILET scores, whereas CLAT is considered by all NLUs except NLU Delhi. Private colleges also accept CLAT scores.
2- NLSIU was established far earlier than NLUD. Hence, the alumni network is far better. Apart from producing great lawyers, NLSIU also promotes more research and has more prestige at the national as well as international levels. Needless to say, ultimate placements are far better than NLUD. (Though placements at NLUD are also very good.
3- Bangalore is the IT hub of India. Hence, a huge number of companies are there. Hence, opportunities are seamless.
4- Apart from this, the climate in Delhi is extreme. But Bangalore has decent weather and climate. These are the reasons why people choose to be in NLSIU rather than NLUD. I hope this will help you.
