Please update this ranking. NLIU, Bhopal won the 3rd B R Swahney Moot at NALSAR alongwith best speaker and best memorial. Recently it won best memorial awards in Stetson south india rounds, Ernakulam GLC moot and a UNHCR moot in kerala.

[Thanks. We also missed out the Henry Dunant qualification rounds. We will update the rankings in the next mooting story with any recent ones we have missed. -Ed]

It is not surPrising that datta did well in the moot. He had been practiSing for the moot very diligentlY. Not only is he an ace mooter of our College but also possesses exceptional linguistic skills. We Hope he continues to win mOots for us in this manner.

I had met Datta at GLC, Mumbai where Datta had mooted previously.

Datta is probably amongst the better known mooters from India - apart from NLU Delhi (now) and obviously NUJS, Kolkata he has a huge fan following in Mumbai as well. I guess Bangalore and NLS (??) must be his next target. Many Congratulations to Abhyuday and Gitanjali as well (who had also incidentally come to Mumbai to moot).

Please update NLIU's position in moots, because of Nalsar's B.R Sawney Moot Court Competition going to NLIU alongwith best speaker and 2nd best memorial.

[Thanks, we will update shortly. -Ed]

Hi

i am a student of Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala, Punjab. this is to bring to your kind attention that a team comprises of Ms. Bhumika Modh, Ms. Roshni Chada and Ms. Sheerin Malik of our university participated in the Justice Tankha Memorial Moot competition being organised by the NLIU Bhopal this Year and secured first position by beating NALSAR in the finals and also secured the Best Memorial runner up trophy.

There have been comments mentioned above, but the rankings have not been updated/altered, so I'm added another comment for good measure:
The following recent acheivements of NLIU should be taken into account:
1)Winner,B.R.Sawney NALSAR moot court competition
2)Best Speaker,B.R.Sawney NALSAR moot court competition
3)Best Memorial, B.R.Sawney NALSAR moot court competition
4)Best Memorial, South India Rounds, Stentson international Moot court Competition.
5)Best Memorial, UNHRC Moot, Madras University

I don't think the points system accounts for the following 2 acheivements, however I'm adding them anyway:

6) 4th Best Team , South India rounds of Stetson
7) 2nd Best Memorial, GLC, Eranakulam Moot

ALL THESE COMPETITIONS HAVE BEEN WITH THE LAST MONTH.

NLSIU qualified to the finals for the World Human Rights Moot Court competition this year.
NLSIU also won the GLC Ernakulam moot court competition.

I do think that the best achievement till now this year has been that of NLS's Lach's win and all of us should atleast stand up and take of this huge achievement that they have brought to the country..well done guys...!!

Our Nalsar is best NLIU just ***** she is right don't go by history whoever has posted .

NLSIU is the best of all LAW colleges

Besides losing to Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala, Punjab, what has NALSAR been upto this year? Very disconcerting to see it nowhere on the league table.

Guys please stop being so juvenile over here....you all are just bringing bad repute to your university..everyone here has had its share of mooting glory...so rather than fighting why not just applaud the good performances..!!

It's become a regular feature of legallyindia to see Kian come up with remarks such as "Thanks. We will update it shortly." or "Sorry, we didn't know about that". Should seriously consider getting someone who apprises themselves of information from the entire spectrum or pyramid rather than a select part of it. This thread or any other thread for that matter is ample proof of that. Either give the entire news or put up a disclaimer.

you shut your mouth

Dear Drew P, many thanks for your constructive comment, as ever.

There was in fact a disclaimer that this is still a work-in-progress.

However, we are working hard on shaping this into something that most people can agree with and we will need community input in getting a good system together.

Please also bear with us as sometimes it can take a little while to authoritatively confirm all the results and details of the moots.

All help mooters can give will be much appreciated, as always.

Best regards,
Kian

Govt of India should start providing quality 'education' to a few law students. (read: the above comments barring Kian's.)

No NLIU don't desreve to be in top lawschools it has only infrastructure not talents

[Do NOT use someone else's name when submitting comments please -Ed]

@ [anonymous]

we are discussing moot achievements this year. probably you are a "law school newbie" and found this forum as the only means to take out your frustration. have a look at nliu's mooting history. i bet you'll be embarrassed at you ignorance.

@ moderator - please don't allow such crap to be published.

Some of the posts which are coming in are just ridiculous. I'm referring to the posts which say the NLIU has only infrastructure but no talent, another one which says that NLSIU is the best and further another which says NALSAR is better than NLIU. All the people, i.e [#5] and other students of NLS and NALSAR, who have been sending in such posts, I have to say that your are letting your college down by making such petty and apprently frustrated comments on a public forum. Also, it shows insecurity on your part, that you have bring down other Universities in public to make yourself look good.
May I also remind such people that this is a truly novel concept introduced by Legally India to have a Mooting Premier League and so please don't use this forum to wash your dirty linen (which is not even really dirty). If you have constructive contributions regarding mooting please make them.
Mature posts such as the one sent in by "NUJS Grad" are encouraged.
The moderator too must make sure that such obnoxious posts are regulated.

i cant believe what kiddish behavior the people are up to in this forum. look dude if you are in a law school, your task is to study n improve your skills n for god's sake dnt get obsessed with false superiority complex.

Now look at that, okay now here we are lets look above at this whole "debate"(though the Sh** above doesn qualify to this solemn word)seeing in a larger prespective, we hv the oh so budding lawyers from the NLIU S nd NUJS S nd the Nalsars,,,etc etc etc fighting it out trying to outshine each other in proving who has a more glorious history,which college reproduces better speakers orators mooters and so on.But respected all do you even realise that in the so called national law schools which you study nd are trained profusely to orate moot win and than boast, but not even five percent 5% of you will become LAWYERS or ADVOCATES,,,shocked ....y?...5yr s nd hellota money nd we wont be Advocates,,,,?/...Yeah its damn true,cuz you are nt been trained to be lawyers or advoctes but a product of huge machines mechanically producing HIGHLY PAID CLERKS. Because do not scribble with pen in Air condition rooms they fight it out with words in court rooms.As is your ultimate dream of lavish packages ,furnished firms or entry in prestiguous corporates is not making you a lawyer but ofcurse highly paid clerks,this proffession was not for those who hv knowledge of law,,even common is expected to know law,rmeber IGNORANCE OF LAW IS NO EXCUSE..proffession was for good orators who can put across words and present the common man in courts.SO WHY THE HELL YOU FIGHT MOOT COURTS WIN THEM TAKE HOME TROPHIES WEN AFTER PASSING OUT VERY FEW WIL DO LITIGATION.9 TO 9 schedules in your colleges are to train you for 5 yrs to become habitual to 9 to 9 corporate life...............NW some Smart A** here will tag me as a frustrated vernaculous ghati ,from a below avg college, but ahmm i graduated from university of delhi law faculty campus law centre, still most prestigious law college ever in India of the only university from our country to be recognised wrold over, and i was swtudent of a 5yr national law college like you all which i quit cuz they were not making me a lawyer but forcing me to run in a rat race, the frustration of which is displayed inevtibly in messages above...I like love respect all your college but wake to what LAW is all about and before these firms and corporates suck the youth out of you and leave you thinking if i had worked this much this long for myself i would hv been some thing else,,,stop running nw nd think........thnk u

nice speach but NLS, the only real "law school", is still the best

go search google nd fine a nice life post voultnary retirement pension scheme , wish u all the luck

@ Lawyer...
nice one....

@Lawyer

brother u should not force ur opinion on others........ it depends on the circumstances..... whether one choses litigation or joins a firm..... I will make myself clearer......

Let us compare the expenditures of Faculty Of Law Delhi University And a National Law University

Expenditure a 3 year degree in Law from Faculty Of Law Delhi University and graduation expenses.........

The fee at Faculty Of Law Delhi University is 3510 Rs per annum…………….(1)
AND
Supposing the fee for a 3 year Graduation and including other expenses Is 1lac Rs per annum (2)
(1)+(2) = 3510 for 3 years + 1 lac for 3 years each
= 10 030 + 3lacs
= 3.11 lacs
Assuming the cost of a laptop and some other extra expenses a further 89, 000Rs is added…..
Hence Total cost of becoming a lawyer who has passed out from Faculty Of Law Delhi University
Is = 4 lac Rs…..
FOR A STUDENT WHO HAS TAKEN A LOAN IT BECOMES 5 LAC RS………..

Now Lets see the expenditure of becoming a lawyer from a National Law University…..
Taking the fee structure Of NLIU Bhopal,
1st Year fee = 1, 82, 000 Rs
Subsequent Years = 1, 62, 00 Rs
Total fee for 5 years = 8.3 lacs
Extra Expenses make it 9.2 lacs……….
9.2 lacs is the cost……..

FOR A STUDENT WHO HAS TAKEN A LOAN IT BECOMES 11 LACS……...

Now, the question arises from where one can repay the loan………???

Now, even a lawyer like Ram Jethmalani would not hav got 11lacs as his 1st fee…. Also to go into litigation one has to have a lot of contacts in the legal fraternity……… not everyone is so resourceful

Also when the bank will press for the repayment of the loan …….Certainly u wont come to their rescue……..

To have a good job is the best security they can have………
