In a recent report for Al Jazeera, former NDTV anchor Sreenivasan Jain castigated Narendra Damodardas Modi and literally every mainstream media outlet in India, describing his former employer NDTV as a last bastion for honest news until the Adani takeover. Do you share this viewpoint? Let's delve into this further! Here's the link -

You don't need to buy books to study BBA subjects. Reading material circulated in class is more than enough. Additionally, library has decent books which you can use. There is only end semester exams of 70 marks. End sems are conducted during the last month of semester which is October/April. Rest 30 marks are for project and viva.

based on info from other threads on this topic the new pay bands for KCO are as follows:

A0 - 15.6 (1.30pm) + 1.5 = 17.1

A1 - 17.4 (1.45pm) + 4 = 21.4

A2 - 21 (1.75pm) + 7.5 = 28.5

A3 - 26.8 (2.15pm) + 10 = 36.8

Can someone please confirm A2 & A3 bands?

as this is environmental llm it will not have much value for corp jobs

moreover, llm even in corp law has little value in corp practice, but if you want to have your cv stand out fron the crowd then a foreign llm is not a bad option if you can afford to spend that kind of money

Youre a teen arent you? maximum freedom is not a thing for any adult in any country. Many students on the JGU campus are not of the legal drinking age. Weed is illegal- if you want it for "medicine" go to one of the western countries where it is legal and get a prescription. If law students cannot have basic respect for the law- what are we doing? How many students should die do you think? for all this unbridled freedom? whats a fair number for you?

I know young people throughout history have thought they were counter culture revolutionaries sticking it to the man by drinking themselves into a stupor and losing braincells to weed- but let me spare you the illusion. Youre not counter culture revolutionaries. Revolutionaries stand for something other than hedonistic consumerism. This isnt moral policing as much as actually recognising alcoholism and substance abuse for the health care crises that they are. You dont get another body in this life time. One is all you get- and substance abuse harms that body and that mind. Its just a fact.

And if you do want "maximum freedom", perhaps you should spend your own damn money on all of this instead of lying to your parents and your school. Cause those are the people who suffer when you turn up dead.

If you think current form of capitalism which is making India grow at 8% per year, made India the fastest growing large economy in the world, and pulled out 250 million people out of poverty in last 10 years is bad (and crony whatever)

try shifting to South Africa, which has equity based capitalism - the dream country of woke liberals - where resources are redistributed based on race

How about that

People who are saying why she didn’t take any legal action are ignorant of the fact what money and influence can do to people fighting for their own rights. we have had many such incidents where not only the victim but whole of their family’s life was endangered to keep the matter under the rug.

I think it is a fab idea. If this is what you want and you can afford it, by all means go for it.

You can interact and socialise as much or as little as you like.

As far as projects are concerned you don't need to sit in a library till midnight. Work smart, get the resources photocopied and leave.

You are there for 5 years. You will eventually get sick of these people and perhaps them you.

Living nearby. Having a nice bed to go to sleep in and clean toilets without the rubbish of dealing with toxic people is a luxury.

Some people want to stay in the hostels. That's fine. But different people can want different things.

I would choose a nearby flat in Chandralayout over a cubicle in Ganga Hostel, and I did for the final years of my time there. But that's just me.

yep, but I think this is quite a cynical view. Yes, we have an exodus of professors but we are in the middle of hiring newer professors. Instead of focusing on those who have essentially been poached, it is better to ensure that the VC brings in newer members. Nobody is tbh irreplaceable.

You Sudhir fans start attacking people anytime they dare to make a criticism about him. Your assumption is that anyone who is not understanding what he is saying is someone who does not work hard. Which is as flawed an assumption as it gets. If you are claiming that all students of Sudhir talk knowledgeably about the subjects that he teaches, that's laughable. His teaching suits some students, it does not others. The former are not the only ones worth teaching, the latter are not all lazy entitled people. He has always lacked empathy for people around him unless they are his personal favourites. It's a trait that he carries into the classroom. If someone questions him on his knowledge of many streams of law, he will be found to be shockingly inadequate. Does that mean he is a bad scholar? No. So why does every single undergraduate student in his class have to end up as a constitutional law or jurisprudence specialist for him to accord basic respect to them? Good teachers make their subject seem interesting (assuming students make basic efforts on their part), but they also are able to explain concepts lucidly enough for non-experts to understand it, as well as accommodating patiently people who need extra help in that regard. Sudhir as a classroom teacher fails in that regard. Several examples of the kind of good teacher that I am talking about exist in Law School itself now. Mrinal, Saurabh, Rahul are all teachers of that calibre. Sudhir simply is not.

My experience with him is different and you are the one making these assumptions, not me. He has always shown a remarkably arrogant display when asked questions. He is not approachable enough as a teacher. He prefers to generate an aura of fear and awe, which is not what a good teacher should do. Never said that one needs to make lectures 'fun', but if you have your say in class and the students don't understand you, then you have failed in your job.

I was disposing of my old books from law college and was in a conundrum as to which one to keep & which ones to let go.

That had me wondering; For people in their profession of more than a decade or so, do you guys still refer to other areas outside of your specialisation? Or are you going deeper into your own. Example, if you practice corporate law, are you up-to-date with say criminal or constitutional law ? Have you looked back at subjects you didn't take after college ?

An absolutely critical ministry responsible for many pending reforms: judicial appointments, reducing the backlog of cases, legal sector liberalisation, NLU nationalisation etc. Yet, a series of incompetent people have been appointed to this post by Modi since 2014, who have enacted zero reforms: Sadananda Gowda, RS Prasad, Karen Rijuju and Arjun Ram Meghwal. Only RS Prasad had some sort of legal practice experience, but largely confined to the Patna HC. He is also a graduate of Patna University. Not exactly A-material.

So is there any hope this time that Modi will appoint someone to the post with some merit and top-level experience? For example, Pinky Anand, Mahesh Jethmalani or Vikramjit Banerjee? Or will it be the same pool of jokers he will look towards? One name doing the rounds is Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay, who has got an easy Lok Sabha seat and is expected to win. But he is unlikely to enact any reforms and will merely use the Law Ministry to expedite corruption cases against the TMC.
