NUJS students don't realise the effects of continuosly revoking invitations of esteemed luminaries because some left liberals have issue. JSD is a senior advocate, esteemed author and a competent public speaker. People should engage in discourse and critical thinking. New VC shouldn't have allowed this

Yes, 40 lacs makes it one of the expensive programmes in the country - definitely not worth it. I remember they were even initially claiming to run the programme from their planned "Gurgaon" campus - that never materialized.

IIM Rohtak has nothing that differentiates it from other mid-tier business schools. Even as a business school, it is mediocre.

Absolutely fantastic!! 👏👏👏👏👏

A great day for NLSIU and a great day for LGBTQIA++ rights. What a great honour that the person responsible for winning the 377 case is now an MP.

NLSIU, Rhodes scholarship, 377 case, Time 100 honouree, Senior Advocate designation and now yet another feather in the cap!!

P.S. This was also expected and speculated about on LI. Some obscure lawyer was spinning rumours on social media that he would get the seat —- was never in contention. Anyone can spread any nonsense rumour!

Okay, I genuinely need opinions, I have the option to join in-house at a startup straight out of law school, but I’m also considering the traditional law firm route first. the in-house role promises, business exposure, and probably handling everything from compliance to crisis calls before lunch. Is skipping law firm life a mistake long-term, or is early in-house experience actually a smarter play in today’s market? If you were graduating right now, what would you choose and why?

He’s playing defensive shots right now. He will increase the run rate after the elections. Also keep an eye out for the SIR developments. If the backlog cannot be cleared on time, the SC will have no option but to delay the elections. That will mean President’s rule and anything could happen.

Isn't it just self serving for partners to spread such rumours? very unprofessional. Until he announces it himself (even if he has indicated it to any of them, which I am sure is in confidence), they should not be spreading this rumour. Really shows lack of character and integrity. It is certainly unnerving for clients, all of whom are giving work purely because of Ravi.

Gen Corp, 6 year PQE. Actually no difference in current pay maybe will that will come in the next few years. The better work life more than compensates for everything. It feels like I am born again. No unnecessary pressure and calls. Everybody asks for permission before calling. Way more liability because need to take responsibility for my calls. But all worth it till now.

Have you ever dealt with male or female partners who comment on other people’s weight, clothes, shoes, and hair regularly? Such comments may not fall strictly under POSH but the comments may have felt disrespectful, creepy or crash still? Please share your experiences and how you deal with such seniors diplomatically. Please assume that HR is of no use.

Have been extensively using claude cowork at my firm. I work in MnA. I have learned to automate 70% of the grunt work. I do all this without telling PA or the partner because I know they wont approve. I have read to claude cowork's agreements and terms and condtions. . . they can't use the data i am uploading if I opt-out.

I can only assume if the juniors under me will be laid off in a couple of years

Hello i am a 1st year llb(3 year) student at bvp new law college pune and have gotten admission to sls pune this year however I'm not really sure with the decision as switching would waste my 1 year and the fees at sls is huge but my father wants the best for me and wants me to go to sls for good placement and overall opportunity so what should I do does college name and brand makes a huge difference?? Kindly share your thoughts

OP is not making the argument that precedent should not be relied upon. They are instead arguing that people rely too much on precedent due to which they spend an undue amount of time searching for precedent which most likely does not exist (especially if it is not found within a few hours). OP is essentially saying that you will sometimes have to argue a case without favourable precedent at hand and that lawyers should make their peace with this.

I feel your frustration, friend.

This is what I did last year. I copied all university domain names from the CLAT website, added a bunch of others I got from our HR, and blocked them. This hasn't stopped students cold mailing me from Gmail addresses, but it has reduced the spam to some extent. Am I the worst human being on the planet for doing this? Sure, but the trade off is worth it.

a) he has delegated some of his executive powers to newly raised deans, although he retains appellate authority

b) when he is in the campus he is quick in his duties, has clear ideas as to what he wants to do

c) but his attendance could be better, especially when dealing with the transition, dual campus etc.

Hello. I am planning on getting myself enrolled in MP state bar council. However I need the enrollment number within 45 days. Is MP State Bar Council really that slow? I won't be able to appear for the examination I've been preparing for since the past 6 months if that's the case.

At least take the effort of reading the article that you are posting - "The spike comes amid disclosures that top government engineers in power utilities draw up to Rs 7 lakh per month, while senior sanitation workers in the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) can earn close to Rs 2 lakh a month after long years of service and revisions"

Leave law because you anyways don't have much aptitude for it.

Unless your undergraduate constitutional scholar is the world's next A.V. Dicey, Walter Bagehot, Ivor Jennings, Carol Harlow or Sir David Williams, I don't think we are gonna see anything other than amateurish bilge coming out of any attempt at "[engagement] with constitutional law" through "research, writing". You need to have read constitutional law like crazy first, both at university as an undergraduate and beyond, and done at least a few of the other activities listed in this post, before you can even begin to think of research. And that doesn't include having been rigorously trained in jurisprudence and legal theory at an advanced level, along with advanced training in both qualitative and quantitative research methods, so that you at least have the tools to try and make an original contribution to knowledge through the "[engagement]". Of course, it's great to try and engage with constitutional law through blogs and so on, but even there, you need to read first (blogs like UKCLA and publiclawforeveryone.com are examples that spring to mind at the top of the head) before trying even that yourself. And that doesn't include training in related fields, such as human rights and international law. Are the law schools providing all these? Sanjay Jain, who teaches con law and juris at NLSIU, points out that it is very difficult for him to discriminate between which he loves more - con law or jurisprudence - because of the connections and mixing up in the two fields. Are the students being taught jurisprudence (and con law) in a way that reveals these beautiful connections or not? Those are more hard-hitting questions to ask IMO. Are the law schools maybe encouraging people to go for jobs like research assistant posts at the law commission or judicial clerkships? Are those roles as well represented in a university's career destination report figures as commercial law at firms? What you want to also ask is if the universities have the kind of centres (meaningfully running) like the Global Centre for Democratic Constitutionalism at UCL and events like that centre's Public Law Seminar Series. If so, are students given opportunities to attend? Are they maybe involved in the organisation of those events? And are they involved to some degree at least in the discussions that take place around constitutional law scholarship discussed at those events? You need to start small first, before you get into big things.

> Ok so policy 1: if you’re travelling outstation for a matter, you’re expected to take the last flight out the day before. You’re then required to work the entire day outstation and take the last flight out or a flight after 8pm so that you can “work”.

How does this even work for metro cities? Is client okay with footing accommodation bills for no apparent reason?

IIM rohtak is yet to be a top management school and you guys chose to study law there?

Bar council should take strict action against this dummy law college. For 5 years they have no Dean, no director of law school and not a single faculty appointed as assistant or associate professor. No question of a single full professor. They appoint only Lecturers and that also on ad hoc or contract basis.

The director of IIM Rohtak who is himself facing with so many charges including falsifying his bachelors degree to get his job has no interest in law program except making money from it.

Students must beware. Go to any xyz law college or even Galgotias but don’t burn money in the name of iim here.

We have a PA in our firm that has decided to mother us juniors instead of actually training us.. I think the firm got a hint and even sent out a circular on seniors responsibilities but that’s made no difference to her.. what I thought was just a friendship has now turned up into a relationship I didn’t want. Some of my colleagues can’t even see what’s going on and I don’t know what to do

About to be a year in the industry. It’s been wild, but I am confused if I have been learning enough in this niche field. I am wondering if I am falling behind my peers in other firms.

I don’t know if I am growing or not, because what does growth look like? Especially in a niche like competition. The only feedback I seem to get on my deliverables is a typo here and there, and they are bound to get into docs at 1 in the night.

They are always hiring, and the work culture is amazing; however, the work hours are a bit long - if you like TMT this is the place to be at

They do core TMT advisory work and also undertake IP/IT diligence

Yes, take work from all teams - everyone's feedback goes to your mentor

Many NLUs boast significantly high placement percentage in their reports but a keen look at the data raises some doubts. Nalsar placed about 95/137 students of their batch this yr, and NLUJ too placed 95/135. But the question is why didn't the remaining 25+% students not sit for placements like in NUJS which placed 122/127? Did all of them not prefer corporate/firms or did they know that they hadn't any chance to begin with? I couldn't find any open discussions about this so is there a juking of stats or am I missing something? please correct me if I am. Thank y

Yes, of course, arriving at the conclusion that precedent does not exist on a point (after searching for it for a considerable point of time) is tantamount to not doing one's work properly. Maybe you need to understand that precedent does not necessarily exist on every single proposition which can be thought of.

It's been four months since Nandi has left the greenery pastures of Law School for the hustle bustle of Noojieland and its perennial state in construction. What has been the highlight of his tenure so far? Does the man have a plan? Has he taken any step towards the betterment of detriment of the student community and the university at large? Is he changing the power structure from NKC's time? How are his equations with the governing bodies? What is the update? Info only and maybe strong rumours, hold the ad hominem please.

Hello,

I am from Karnataka studying law in tier 3 Non-NLU college, I come from a farmers family.
Coming to the point, I have secured internship under a Judge of Supreme Court for May month, I know none in Delhi, So could anyone suggest affordable PG or Hostel in Delhi for a month.

Hello everyone,

I am a first-year law student at a Tier-1 NLU (completing my second semester in April 2026) and am currently seeking internship opportunities for the May–June 2026 cycle.

I want to explore commercial litigation, especially insolvency and NCLT practice, and would prefer to intern in Mumbai. During the previous internship cycle (November–December 2025), I completed two district court internships I saw civil and criminal litigation.

I now wish to see commercial disputes as a practice, especially in forums such as the NCLT. However, I am not sure what would be good places to apply to, given the fact that I would have only just finished my first year at the time of internship. I really want to be able to work and observe closely, and am thus looking for places that would allow for such an opportunity while still being in the 1st year.

Thank you in advance.

I wonder how this compares with lawyer salaries, and if it’s worth for law graduates to consider low-level careers with the Telangana state government in different capacities? Is it better to be a stenographer with the Telangana government, than a junior lawyer practising in the High Court? Or even a lawyer with a small firm?

Of course, I guess knowledge of Telugu is a must, and they will also be heavy reservation for SC/ST/OBC candidates.

I am looking to switch from my law firm job to good chambers or join any senior advocate in Delhi (General litigation and not restricted to only IP or other specialised areas)

There should be scope of growth, quality work, flexibility to take up independent matters, and good pay. And most importantly a good boss!

Looking for genuine suggestions.

Hi. Have spent close to a year in a T2 / boutique law firm now, in a city and practice area of my choice. However, I don’t feel like settling for this. I want to be in a creative career - not necessarily in the arts, but I have been told (and do feel) that I would do well in an organisational or logistical career, with a lot of people interaction. Any suggestions from those who have made the switch? How do I move, what career can I pick? Would be grateful for any help.

This is a PSA for all law students from an RP. Please stop spamming my inbox with internship requests. The volume of emails I receive makes me less inclined to consider those applications. I do not know any alternative methods but I assure you that this method DOES NOT WORK.

The HR of every firm will consider your application on merits. It is their job and is based on the SOPs that we have in place.

The Supreme Court demanded accountability Thursday as it outraged over a section on 'corruption in the judiciary' in a NCERT Social Science textbook for Class VIII students.

"We would like to have a deeper probe. We need to find out who is responsible… heads must roll! We won't close the case," Chief Justice Surya Kant said as he grilled Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the National Council of Educational Research and Training.

Moments earlier Mehta had said those responsible for referring to 'corruption in the judiciary' – as part of the chapter – 'The Role of the Judiciary in Our Society' – would play no further role in writing and producing the textbook. "We stand by the institution. no one will get away scot-free."

This will be India's first fully digital international arbitration center, established and hosted by NFSU Law School.

Hi OP, I am a T1 NLU grad who graduated in a bottom 25% rank with 4 job offers, including from two T1 law firms. It can be done - but is a question on making the best of every opportunity you get. I'd absolutely kill it in every internship — never had one where I wasn't offered at least a callback. Then I'd network and make connects with everyone — seniors at college, alumni, guest faculty who were otherwise working professionals, etc etc. Easier than you think: just read up on their practice areas / areas of interest, demonstrate genuine interest, and be honest about needing an opportunity. Don't ask for the opportunity (unless you've interned / worked with them), ask for guidance. Eventually, go back and show that you did what they suggested, and if that doesn't automatically get you something else, it will at least make you look like a viable candidate and you can then go on to request an opportunity/reference.

Also, re: your rank, just show improvement. Read up before the class. Have an idea of what's going to be talked about and everything in the class becomes easy. If you can, make notes. If you can't, beg and borrow from seniors. That coupled with a genuine demonstration of interest and people willing to vouch for your dedication will almost definitely get you a job offer.

All the best!

Bill Gates has acknowledged having two affairs with Russian women during his marriage to Melinda French Gates and expressed regret over his past association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Speaking at a town hall on February 24, the Microsoft co-founder admitted that the relationships were later brought to Epstein's attention.

Do students today still meaningfully engage with constitutional law and theory beyond treating it as just another mandatory subject? While many students continue to find constitutional law intellectually fascinating, one must ask whether that interest translates into sustained, serious engagement capable of shaping legal discourse.

In an era where career trajectories appear increasingly corporate-oriented, constitutional law risks being reduced to a classroom requirement rather than a lived academic and intellectual pursuit. Are students engaging with constitutional theory outside the syllabus through research, writing, litigation, public law forums, or critical debate? Or has constitutionalism become more symbolic than substantive within law school culture?

The question is not merely about curricular presence, but about intellectual commitment. If law schools are to remain spaces that nurture public reasoning and constitutional imagination, engagement must extend beyond examinations and into scholarship, institutional conversations, and interventions in contemporary debates.

Is that still happening, or are we witnessing a quiet retreat from constitutional discourse within our campuses?

op here. incase anyone was wondering why I made this "very probably trollish" post: https://www.legallyindia.com/convos/topic/470758-Observations-on-NLS-alumni-as-a-neutral-non-NLU-observer

Is there a basis for this claim? If he is retiring soon it will be useful to know for juniors/laterals hoping/planning to join him thinking they will get to work with him. Frankly associates may not join this team but for Ravi's stellar reputation. Other partners are mostly not very well known.
