I was in the same boat as well during my first year. I used to feel out of place, someone who doesn't belong to this crowd. Be it academically (I was never a topper in school while there were people who were district toppers/state toppers in board exams) or financially. U may feel lonely for a few months, and u may feel like everyone is so different. However, u will meet people who match your vibes and come from similar backgrounds so don't worry. It takes a bit of time but slowly u will settle down too.

OMG so trueeeeeee. See it’s not about elitism. But the way they are projecting themselves is soo artificial. It doesn’t ring any intellectual bell for me , just pathetic glorification of their glamour which is so pretentious. I am worried as well. I am going to NLU-D this year and trust me I feel the sameee. It’s not only you. The social media groups just ruined my expectations of an intellectual ride.

Hardly ever read books other than the ones which were mandatory as part of the course curriculum in school. However, I had a habit of reading newspapers daily since I was in class 6. Made it to NLS and have been fairing decently (Top 20-25%). I don't think that there is anything wrong with not reading books. Many of my classmates never had this habit of reading page after page but after a while, almost everyone settles down and picks up the habit of reading without which u cannot survive at this place.

On a side note, one of my classmates dropped out of NLS during the 2nd trimester who always had a storybook with her. I had very little interaction with her but what I have gathered was that she preferred reading to watching movies etc. She was one of the absolute toppers of CLAT as well.

NLS is a crazy place, u can be the AIR 1 and fail (this is true and u will get to know it once you step into the college) while you may have had a rank in 1k+ and still be the batch topper (There are numerous examples of this sort).

I am not sure about what else is going on with your batch but this wasn't a cringey example, not everyone likes to read fiction and will prefer to watch a movie or a TV show. However, I do agree that your batch is somewhat mad with 1000s of internships, paper publications, and stupid LinkedIn posts which don't make sense but that can be attributed to the fact that u guys have got so much time to celebrate the CLAT success. Other batches usually get a month's time when the world is rosy af, u feel like u have conquered the world until the reality of law school hits and u realize that u r just one among the many in this rat race. Any batch would have probably done what u guys are doing if they had got 6months of this rosy phase.

LI report on Jindal grad:

▮▮▮

Regardless of what you people write, the fact remains that NLUD is still one of the best. It’s the only college without some local domicile quota unlike NLS, NALSAR and NUJS. It’s located in the capital and set up by the NCT of Delhi, which is not some ordinary state like the others. It’s the only college capable of sustaining itself separated from CLAT, besides NLS. So it’s in a league of its own.

And we’ve ranked high in NIRF even when placements weren’t as high so claiming that your cheap NLU would be 2nd or 3rd if not for NLUD is just wishful and desperate. If anything, it was from SKD’s time that salary figures got inflated, but be assured we’d still be 2nd even with 16 lacs p.a.

Caution: You will never get a PhD unless the VC himself believes that your thesis is good enough. This is even if all the evaluators and domain experts have passed your thesis. And even if the VC has no idea about your area of work. If he doesn't like your guide, then you won't get a degree in 5 years at least. There are people who have been waiting for over 2 years now after submission.

Don't believe what the NUJS students are saying. You, however, have been claiming NLUD's superiority over the years because of NIRF only, so why are you disbelieving the data now? Or does it hurt to know that your research score when checked by outsiders is actually pretty low, contrary to what you have been claiming?

Please don't start pretending that NLUD hasn't always been lying about salary figures because they have been. Keep calling other NLUs lower rung if that helps you deflect attention from your lies. The students from those places outperform you everywhere anyway. According to NIRF data itself, their faculty do too now.

No proof of that. Under SKD’s reign, it seems the salary figures have some miscalculation. Don’t pretend like this is some story of the boy who cried wolf where now everything is an apparent lie. Clearly, your aim is not to have any actual debate but simply to bash NLUD since you failed to get through the entrance exam and had to settle for a perceptibly lower rung NLU.

Thanks, but I’ll stick around and take my chances, I think NLUD is better than all the rest. At the very least, it can get better, something the older law schools haven’t. And what’s your deal with trying to bash NLUD with some senseless hashtag? You sound like a child rather than an actual constructive commentator on data. Then again, you are a troll. AILET failure still haunting you?

Read the document yourself first, you ▮▮▮. It was the batch that graduated in 2015. The NIRF data is for the 2020 graduating batch. You’ve recovered an old document and are falsely shouting that NLUD lied about the numbers.

I know that you guys would love to “piggyback” on one inaccurate data set to claim that everything else is false in the hope that some CLAT aspirant reads this and chooses a shit place like NUJS/Nalsar over NLUD, but like I said you’re too stupid to actually get proper data on the table to argue.

This might actually be the first open category NLS grad to even go to IIMA. There’s zero information on anyone else. And no, the other three also have folks at the IIMs. One from NLUD this year, NUJS had it last year. Stop spreading fake news. NLS is now just a local Karnataka college with domicile quota.

First of all I don’t know which nlu you are selected to but definitely (with all due respect) you need to work on your vocabulary to explain what ‘booger’ is. Secondly , if you yourself embrace this kind of toxicity , then maybe you are one of them and if not - then you are just as problematic as you can be

Arey rattu popat! In the real world we can refer to the relevant provisions readily, instead of relying on memory, to figure out the answer. Even if someone would be unaware about the conditions that are required to be satisfied for a buy-back, as long as they are smart enough to figure out where to look up for the most updated version of the SEBI regulations, they will figure out the answer to it.

Instead, let me ask you some practical questions which wouldn't have been taught to you in your CS textbooks or prep material.

Q1. What is the reasoning behind adding the phrase "based on the standalone or consolidated financial statements of the company, whichever sets out a lower amount." to regulation 4(i) of the buy-back regulations?

Q2. In the explanation to regulation 4(i), the phrase "based on the standalone or consolidated financial statements of the company, whichever sets out a lower amount." is absent. Would it mean that when computing the maximum limit for equity shares, I can disregard the said phrase?

Q3. If you would refer the footnotes to the phrase " based on the standalone or consolidated financial statements of the company, whichever sets out a lower amount.", it states that the amendment is w.e.f 9th March 2023. But what about cases where a buy back has already been made public before this date? In such a case will the proviso to regulation 4(iv)(b) be applicable?

I am sure that 100% of company secretaries wouldn't even get close to answering these questions satisfactorily.

Can someone help me out? I struggled to make sense of a lot of it and though the director sidestepped some key issues.

1. Just why would the Mumbai police want to frame Jigna Vora?

2. Is the Mumbai Police protecting Dawood or Rajan or both?

Also, who is the lawyer shown defending Jagruti based on? Satish Manshinde?

The level of confidence this comment has in how accurate it's description of how anarchist Batch 23 has been in the past year is almost unnerving. Perhaps, this confidence should also be reflected in the individual disclosing his identity and taking a stand openly for what he/she believes to be the truth. Please don't hide behind a bush, speak truth to power openly.

Bro, just get over the fact that gnlu is nothing but a big PR project. Even lower tier nlus or private universities/colleges would fare much better with the amount of funding and PR that you guys are getting. Honestly it's actually embarrassing that students are actually making a case for getting a higher ranking in a contest which even the winners know is rigged.

Hello, fellow 560072-er. You're right, it was all random, but as a trend, people of similar ranks did room together because of the interview sequence. Maybe 34, 37 and 39 were in a room together, and 33, 35 and 38 were in the next room. It wasn't intentional, just a natural result of the way the interviews were done.

I'm a Patent agent and a penultimate year law student. Have a background in chemistry but dont know chemistry at all. Can i still practice in Patent litigation?

From my understanding, having a science background is necessary for those who are involved in a technical role like patent analysts who perform Prior art/ invalidity searches etc.

I have a good command over patent specification drafting and am well versed with the Patents Act and international practice. Is that enough to make a career in Patents?

Hi, I've heard that they are giving out assessment internships in bulk. Are they expanding and are in a position to hire or is it just a sham? The situation of the firm before their merger was not good. They were even not properly paying their existing employees. Has the situation changed post merger? Will the firm give out considerable number of PPOs to the 2023 and 2024 batches?

this such a bullshit post.
dating creepy older guys?? as if it has not been committed by younger guys, that's an offensive categorization without any evidence of anything in correlation.
also, this societal change we're going through, we are going through a change where dating preferences. also, this modern thinking is still in its early stage in Indian society, plus crime cannot be stopped but can be monitored and reduced.

few steps need to be taken.
1. Young people need to be more open about their dating and share with family.
2. families need to be more open to the idea of dating as most young ones make it a hidden affair

Before coming to college , while I was preparing for clat I never realised that this cringy thing exists in Tier-1 NLU as well. I am ashamed to be a part of this batch. We are literally organising intro groups on Instagram. Even nlsiu has an intro group. And oh boy the cringe that the group generates.

I want to ask those people , especially those NLS fans - Why did you tell us law school will be intellectually stimulating and interesting when these intros are totally radiating a different vibe. That other day while watching an interview I found this person from NLS stating that she doesn’t even read books and apparently TV shows are more ‘helpful’……….

Please tell me that these are the ones who fail at nls. Else I don’t think I can survive with them.

Give it a rest with the high quality teaching and research propaganda. NUJS faculty research and publications have in fact been given a better score than NALSAR and NLUD in the latest NIRF data. As for teaching faculty, there are plenty of good ones as well as bad ones, just like any other NLU.

But NLUD has always lied about placements from year one. So their ranking doesn't count. If that's one thing that they keep lying about, who will believe that their other data are accurate either? It's a liar's den and there's no use claiming that they don't care, since there are so many NLUD trolls who keep defending their university's lies here.

Is this allegation based on credible proof or mere conjecture? Because if it is the latter then you are nothing but a rumor monger who needs to get back to work.

The BCD and HCBA do not understand the rules and are ignorant of the clear cut restriction on litigation being done by these foreign law firms. They are just jumping up and down for no reason. Unka roz ka dhanda safe rakhha hai Manan Chachu ne!!

The comments against NLUD are just the product of jealousy, nothing else. You all know very well that perception score is a part of all rankings. QS also has it. It can't be helped if your college has bad PR and publicity. A college cancels the governor of a state (now the vice president of India) and expects good PR and publicity???

will be going to nalsar this year…. even though I’ve read a lot of threads about how the elitism isn’t as bad as it seems in tier 1 NLUs…I can’t help but feel insecure….social media groups too are very active and just seeing some of their profiles shows what different worlds they come from. There’s this rich ▮▮▮ on Instagram in our batch…and every time I see her I feel lacking…I feel like I won’t belong once we begin university in person…so many of these kids seem so different. Any advice for this..
