Weekend’s 3-moot-spectacular: NUJS leaps up behind NLS, Nalsar in MPL rankings; NLU Delhi extends lead over NLU-J [DMH, KLA, Surana Corp]

The weekend of three grand moots, including India’s best and India’s second-oldest moots, saw some law schools managing to upset the MPL 6 pecking order, while others, especially the top 4 - NLU Delhi, NLU Jodhpur, NLSIU Bangalore and Nalsar Hyderabad – held on steady to the top spots.

NLU Delhi (KLA Winner), NUJS (DM Harish Runners up), CNLU (D M Harish Best Memo), and ILS Pune (Surana Corporate Winner) were the biggest gainers at this mooting weekend.

After some weeks of catch-up for second-ranked NLU Jodhpur, NLU Delhi managed to extend its lead this weekend to 34 points, sitting at 122 points.

NUJS, meanwhile, leapt from eighth position last week to fifth now, at 68 points – just two behind Nalsar, and 7 behind NLSIU.
