Feels gr8 tat my state also has a NLU nw..... hope tat it does well

Another "National University" with "Half of the seats . . . reserved for students from the state." This is HNLU's twin. Another disaster.

Dude is it some 'prasad' being distributed.....this random mushrooming of "national law schools" is a matter of concern...the people supporting such initiatives-from State Governments to members of the judiciary have to seriously consider the problems being faced by various law schools already in existence......good faculty, placements are only few of such issues......

ITS NICE THAT JHARKHAND GOT NLU BUT IT WILL NOT BE LIKE NEW COALITION LED GVT THAT AFTER EVERY 6 MONTHS THERE WIL BE RESHUFFLE , AND JOB ASPIRANT WILL GET JOB OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE IN JNLU BITMESRA
I WISH GOOD WISHESH TO GVT IN APPOINTING NEW VC (PARENT) FOR INFANT
HAVE A NICE AND SUCCESSFUL INFANT TO BECOME MATURE PERSON

when wil be the class started for nlu ranchi???

when wil be the class started for nlu ranchi???

Its not an NLU. Its name is modelled on NALSAR !!!

People are soooo sick of the name thingy that the 6th college and onwards, they are simply referred by name of the city they are based in.

#2 ...
Boss think at least twice before making any comment. HNLU is not disaster. I do not want to start any debate on law schools, so it's better you don't reply to this message.

I agree with you. But I also would support the fact that reservations for state tend to affect the University. It also reduces the class variety etc. HNLU is a good instituion, but maybe it would have been better if there were no such reservations? Same for NLIU Bhopal. Even alumni of these fine institutions say so.

@ #2 - your comment is a bit strong. It is good to be moderate and place things delicately so that others are not hurt. Also, while HNLU may have done better w/o reservations, it has produced some great lawyers.

assam is also starting one nlu...i am not sure but i think it will be operational from this year itself

I think this is ridiculous....I mean how can you call it a National University when you have reservations for the state's students...

my point applies to all the others who have reservation....they should be called State law universities.

what a farce....they are just spoiling the name of the existing universities

sounds more like a news report than a blog

a while ago... People were angry when AP govt finally made 20% reservation for the state students at Nalsar.... whereas the above article has 2 'National' institutions - both having 50% reservation for in-state students.... should not the same 'students' be now raring/ shouting on the rooftops???

I second it..... dis whopping 50 % state reservation thingy is jus too ridiculous. The administration is becomin oblivious of the fact that this has been a mere mockery in the name of great institution of 'national law schools'.

at least a good positive news of academic nature after a long time from Ranchi . GOD bless the policy makers. It is never late.

Another HNLU Twin? Another Disaster?

I'm not here to debate upon the topic.. but the 50 % reservation has been inconclusive, atleast in terms of NLIU, and also HNLU.
Take the case of last year's clat... the state general category for NLIU closed 3 points below (at 153) the NLIU All-India General Category (at 157) in the first list, at the same time, one could get into NUJS with a 157 in the first list. If people on the other side of this argument do not understand what this implies, it merely signifies the fact that a person who crammed up the articles of the constituion better than another, or one who remembered which committee did what, and could recall this in the examination, and the other couldnt... the first one is a general category student, and the next is not.
And also, the CLAT is one such exam where the highest scoring candidate, might not be the most eligible one to study law, since its based upon parameters that a drop, or more hardwork, can improve, like GK, current affairs, etc.... So with a mere 3 point margin, I don't see how a national law University becomes a disaster.

And now on a personal note, since I am in NLIU, a college, which by your logic, is a reservation disaster... 2 out of the top 5 students are from MP. The team which won the Intra-Batch Moot consisted of 2 girls that came from Bhopal and Jabalpur and they beat a team with a guy from DPS, RKPuram in the finals. The only first year debater ever to break into the Debate Pool is a state category student from DPS Bhopal, and he's debate secretary now.

Im not trying to say that state category students hold the same merit. I'm saying that the criteria for merit is RANDOM. One cannot determine how well he or she might do in law school based upon clat marks.

Also, the highest ranked in the CLAT, in our batch, AIR in the 70s, failed most of the subjects in his first trimester, while the topper was a state category student with an AIR in 300s.

It doesnt matter, so get a life.

An NLU in Jharkhand!

McDonalds has got competition in market coverage now!

I'm lovin' it!

To the guy above at #18.

I have face NLIU at moot court competitions and know people there. Its in all ways a good law school. And it is light years ahead all the new ones. But you cannot say there is no problem with a state quota. It kills a university. The problem of averages come out. You might have the best from the country at the top but then you also get people with quotas within state quotas with ranks which are beyond 2000 - which is a fair number. At NLS our average is good.

Thats what matters - recruiters look for the good average which counts for consistency. It saves law schools from the randomness of candidates.

With a better average - you have more people to do the same job. At NLIU, the people I know do everything.

lol... dude, who'er posted comment no. 19....... fab fab fab...:D

@18. Nobody is talking about NLIU here. Jharkand and Chattisgarh are way much behind M.P. in size and development. Going by what you say, most of the M.P. students would have got admitted into NLIU irrespective of whether NLIU had 50% reservation or not. Sadly, the same cannot be said of HNLU.

what is the official website of nlu jharkhand

HNLU A disaster!True very true!

@yash

I am from your university and I don't want to comment on the rest of your batch. Around 4-5 or may be 10 are good who belong to MP what about the rest? Well I would not like to comment on that and you also better not...
and I',m not questioning your ability, I'm talking about the others...

What to select, NLU cuttack or HNLU ?

I guess NLU Cuttack would be a better option as far as academics is concerned..They have one of the best Vice Chancellors in the country in Prof . Faizan Mustafa,,,,Their Course Structure too is well organised and since its their Second year only you will have a good time over there..

To everybody

1) For those who think NLU jharkhand is going to be a disaster like HNLU....well it won't be!! that's bcuz HNLU in itself is not a disaster. If you don't believe me... check out the "india today" and "aaj tak" law college rankings...HNLU ranks 11th in the list. Hence, if HNLU can do it... so can NLUJ. To be diplomatic, after-all its an NLU and it will be far better than so many of traditional law colleges in India and at the end of the day it is going to earn a reputation. JUST BCUZ ITS A NATIONAL LAW UNIVERSITY :-).SO....CHILL GUYS!!

2) For those who say it is unconventional for an NLU to reserve 50% seats for the state students.... my dears...you might as well look at the number of seats. yes, there are 150 seats in total. thus 75 seats are still open for outsiders. that is perhaps more than what most of the NLU's have got to offer!!

3)For those who are worried about the rickety government issues... well its just to be optimistic. Take the example of other National Level colleges in jharkhand that have survived the governmental faliure in the state. . . . to quote a few names there are BIT mesra, XISS ranchi, XLRI jamshedpur, ISM dhanbad.....rather these colleges have evolved than taking a step back!!

END NOTE : AFTER-ALL ITS FOR THE WELL WISHERS TO BE OPTIMISTIC AND ENTHUSIASTIC FOR THE STEP THAT JHARKHAND IS TAKING TOWARDS THE FUTURE OF LEGAL EDUCATION IN THE STATE AND COUNTRY AT LARGE.

....AND FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A PROBLEM.... KEEP YOUR PONTIFICATING VIEWS TO YOURSELF...[...]
