"We don't need Oxford-educated judges like Ruma Pal, or sophisticated lawyers like KKV on the governing body. We are happy with non-fancy, local people like Kalyan Banerjee and Sanjay Basu. Also, MP Singh is overrated, Sudhir is overrated etc etc.."
Okay, so who is this guy? NKC should definitely do something about this? And notice how the surnames change in the same article?
Then again if NKC did look like this would things have been more.....
A GB full of headless chickens and sheep is feast for the Lecters in SJA, faculty and admin ranks. On Oct 16 when the EC will do zilch and the VC will throw a few morsels to SJA for onward transmission to GB, then we will see how the planned student action begins from Nov 1.
NKC will not resign on Oct 16. He will be given an honourable exit. Even PIB got one and the illegality of SAK continuing as Registrar for years also did not get recorded in the minutes. Ofc it is a different matter what was verbally discussed and why SAK scooted.
It is time to disband the SJA.

Two - You aren't coming from a neutral space, you have a clearly biased view towards one side of the litigants and a possible fan worshipping for DYC.
And that's what all your statements are for.
Curative petition can be filed on very limited grounds. The grounds to find it have to be found in the judgment, not by comments of its authors.
The intention of the legislature, for instance, has to be decided from the words in the statute, not a minister's address in the Parliament. (That's also one of the ways, but not the first way. )
If someone has to file curative, they'll have to find the grounds in the words of the judgment. Not in the words of the author given in the interview.
Secondly, MoGo was a youth Congress activist in his student days and later headed the Congress-aligned think tank the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation. Also close to RaGa. Google and check it out.
MoGo 🤝 RaGa.
Probably all people here who are saying GNLU is better is most likely from GNLU.
A lot of young A0-A1 may be able to advise you on that.
Also, saw some lawyers and academics who are influencers. Is the lawfirm and jindal life really that good?
To me it seems a lot of these old law firm partner uncles and aunties with FOMO are falling for verbose and fancy marketing and just buying wrappers of existing AI. Its like Xiaomi or Samsung charging a premium claiming that their OS is better, when fundamentally its just android with a skin aka theme with add ons.
I ask this because, one Techbro on my LinkedIn keeps yapping about his product's capabilities. And I always end up thinking to myself, what more can it do that a Claude or a Chatgpt or Deepseek can't do? Its just a question of the correct prompt. Are you paying a premium because your associates can't prompt? Its the same as not being able to use Westlaw and Manupatra.
I agree, you can train it on your law firm's database and make it use "Firm Formatting". But dear law firm uncle, do you know that you can self host an LLM which will keep your data safe AND DO THE SAME THING?? All for free!? i don't know what you're paying such a Bajillion premium dollars for.
I remember talking to a fellow some years back, his aim was to collect all law firm precedents - surreptitiously, and feed to his database and create his own AI tech. So, uncles be careful and make sure data sharing is ironclad. Get it audited and all.
Disclosure:
I'd like to say I haven't used any AI tech. But, I would also like to tell you that I am a seasoned corporate lawyer with about 9-10 PQE. I also am a tech "enthusiast", meaning at a basic level I can code SBCs like Arduino, esp32. I am comfortable with deploying linux servers, docker, self hosted softwares etc. I say this to let you know, that I do know my tech. I have been using Linux by myself since 2008.
Now, I also love Chatgpt, Deepseek, Claude etc., I use them a lot in daily life instead of google nowadays. I also use them to draft and find references etc.
Personally, I have not really used an AI Legal tool yet. I have found existing free options more than sufficient. Neither for drafting nor for legal research, it's unlikely that I will use it or need to use it in the future, given the trajectory of my life.
And here's the one by HNLU, sung by Shaan. https://www.legallyindia.com/lawschools/hnlu-raipur-gets-its-own-law-school-anthem-20180806-9484
Who wins? 🤣
IMO both have cringe lyrics and a weak melody. But the one by Jindal is in English and has classy instrumentation (sitar and tabla), whereas the one by HNLU is in Hindi with cheesy Bollywood sax and keyboard. Also, the Jindal singers are students, whereas the HNLU VC paid money to Shaan to sing, which led to student protests.🥲 So Jindal wins for better use of resources and better instrumentation?
re OP, this has been discussed before: most RW vs LW vs blabla posts will be automatically marked trollish because they're usually off topic and not relevant or interesting to most readers, and are usually posted to provoke a flame war.
The SJA has already failed the GB multiple times by failing to produce evidence of wrongdoing by the VC. They squandered their opportunity in the GC and then tried to wing it by organising meaningless protests. Now no one takes us seriously. We have become a laughing stock. All thanks to SJA.
If we truly want to go after a rotten system (and not just an individual) then we need to cancel SJA from the equation. It serves the interest of ▮▮▮ who have a cozy relationship with the powers that be. ▮▮▮.
And when SC judge in the GC wanted evidence what did the SJA and the faculty do? I care abt the faculty as much they care about us. But SJA? They must pay the price of breaking out trust and making us run and look like headless chickens.
And now get to know that the headless chickens actually made 65 demands? Not that 47 demands made things sound or look better. Still what are these demands that couldn't even be mentioned in the media and not even when a student wrote on The Wire?
Where is the KO evidence? The lack of it clearly ensured that SJA was rightly fobbed off by the GC and now VC feels confident to organise interviews and dog whistle threats. He had indicated similarly through brief statements to Indian Express and TT.
Now the VC is unlikely to be given marching orders on Oct 16. So the farcical Oct 31 ultimatum of the SJA will fall flat. What then? Will it go against the EC? Will SJA litigate in Cal HC and SC esp when it cannot even produce the so called incriminating evidence before us; before GC; and before the media during the protests.
Kick out this SJA.

Whereas, during my tenure at an institution of higher learning, I resided in a shared dormitory with communal bathroom facilities that were, in many instances, not subject to adequate maintenance or cleanliness standards. In light of these circumstances, I, in my capacity as a person seeking to maintain both hygiene and dignity, took measures to alleviate the discomfort caused by the unsanitary state of the aforementioned facilities.
Specifically, I engaged in the practice of disposing of certain bodily fluids in the basin, as this method was, at the time, the most reasonable and effective means to fulfill my physiological needs, given the prevailing conditions. This action, though initially performed out of necessity, has since evolved into a habitual behavior, carried over into subsequent living arrangements, including my tenure at a paying guest accommodation ("PG") and my current domicile.
Today, while engaged in a separate and unrelated activity (specifically, the consumption of food), I found myself once again executing this action, which I now refer to as a "milestone" in the continued existence of this routine. The act of liquid waste disposal, though performed without deliberate intent, has become a matter of reflexive action—an automatic response to a long-standing habit formed under specific environmental conditions.
While the action itself is not inherently damaging or unlawful, I hereby seek counsel on the appropriate course of action to terminate this persistent practice. I request insight into whether this behavior may be categorized as an "unlawful habit" or whether there exist any established psychological, behavioral, or rehabilitative methods for the cessation of such a deeply rooted routine.
Further, I am interested in determining whether such habitual conduct might be construed as a defense to negligence, should it ever come under scrutiny in a future scenario.
I await any expert opinions or precedents that may assist in resolving this matter.
