Sweeping marriages: As social media buzz continued about the Madras HC maintenance order on sex and marriages, former Madras HC judge K Chandru “warns against the tendency to make sweeping statements in family matters”, saying that the Justice CS Karnan’s judgment reported yesterday is likely to be “misunderstood” by subordinate courts, which might force people into relationships merely because they have had sexual intercourse. [Times of India] Karnan, in turn, today defended the judgment, saying it was misunderstood, and “not only for the purpose of giving relief to the victim woman, but also to maintain the cultural integrity of India” [Hindu]

Media should learn to be objective rather than get lured by such advertisement proposals and publish paid news. Katju and PCI should take this up.

And before you question my locus, I must clarify that I am an NLSIU alum who is not particularly proud of recent events in that campus. If I was giving the CLAT this year, I would have certainly preferred NALSAR above NLSIU.
I mean, it is one of the premier institutes of the country; so why are they not even placed anywhere. There are surely better than most of the schools on that list.
RS short of funds?

On the other hand ILS has thousands of alum and they are doing well. Azb and amss also hired 2 in last 2 years. So why ils is not in the top 3.
