I have noticed that several faculty members have recently O.P. Jindal Global University. Some have joined public universities while others have moved to Munjal University in Gurgaon or taken up opportunities abroad.
Does anyone know what the main reasons are for this apparent outflow of faculty?
tell this to the district court judge who will throw away your bail petition in 5 minutes.
If you want to do academia in India - do an llm at nlu or some other college (3L) and then do a PhD.
Foreign llm has no value in the Indian job market. Even in international job market it doesn't have much of value. It's almost impossible or very difficult to get hired as a lawyer in US / UK / EU with a foreign llm of that respective jurisdiction. They prefer native lawyers with JDs. Immigration is difficult. Law is not a skill like nursing or engineering for which foreigners are even considered.
If you are really rich and can comfortably spend 50L to 90L without any loans zero expectations of return on investment. Then go for foreign llm. It can give some exposure if it's a right college. I would say save 70% of that amount. Spend a summer travelling across Europe or north America instead of an llm.
Even at top places like Stanford, NYU, Cambridge. It's pretty much easier to get an LLM than any other degree. LLM is just a cash cow for these colleges and are not job oriented courses.
after 2 decades or so TS and AP vamoosed from CAM.......is this the new transformation model playing out?
Assuming that they should end somewhere at 35 this time.
Freshers do get hired but only the ones who have trained themselves well to be useful to be a senior litigant. No hand holding and absolutely no excuses. Disputes is a ruthless practice, but if you got it, you are already a far better lawyer than almost any other transactional lawyer.
Train madly. Know your bare acts. Stay updated on latest judicial pronouncements. Practice talking in front of a mirror. Mostly this is it and then the rest is genuinely magic.

On revaluation, it takes time, reval usually takes place after the next trimester has started, so your friend may have to wait a bit longer for that.
and that too for a big matter as he just wanted to stay relevant.
this Sr. that Snr. has nowdays loosing its charm just go to DHC and see yourself now, every other guy you bumped is now a senior now a days there are not many interns roaming then seniors with gowns
But for your own growth, it's bad to rely upon AI. Because AI won't help you during one on one interaction with senior/client.

My primary motive of asking this question can I replace my non nlu with something else that can be seen as sign of intelligence. My college is decent at best
But To be competitive at law firm application that why i consider it to put in my cv to been seen as other sign of intelligence and grit other than college rank and nlu status
The bullshit of the Union Government of today and them getting away from it is insane.
