The admin is overreacting. These are super rich students cosplaying as Marxists revolutionaries. They are harmless and will join the capitalist ecosystem and become RW after they graduate. Always happens. I can give many examples and you can ask people in law firms. Marxism is a TikTok fad for them, that’s all.

Kolkata is a small metro? It ranks 3rd in terms of GDP and contribution to Income Tax. By your logic only Mumbai and New Delhi would be regarded as metros.

Chennai though ranks 4th in both the above parameters, Tamil Nadu is the second most industrialized State and Chennai is the hub and will soon go past Kolkata and even overtake New Delhi.

35. Calcutta HC Litigation. Networth including shares and other investments- 1.6 cr. Revenue picked up post covid and so have the value of investments. Am making a little more than 1 cr a year now and am hoping to double it in a few years. Hopefully hit 10 cr in 5-8 years (depending on appreciation of portfolio and practice). Not including family wealth as that is not in my control, though substantial.

Aa gaye bade gyaani. The latest issue of EJIL (the most celebrated international law journal after AJIL) is a TWAIL issue. See the editorial here: https://academic.oup.coml/ejil/advance-article/doi/10.1093/ejil/chad059/7473376?login=true

EJIL is as mainstream as it gets, which has now said that TWAIL has become mainstream.

I am pursuing a judicial internship for this month and probably would want to do a clerkship for a year- get an LOR, then maybe work for a year under an advocate or a firm, later hopefully go outside for my masters .

I am although confused about this plan a little as should i keep trying for firms in dispute resolution or other fields?

My target is 80 crore (excluding house and car value) when I turn 50, as the prices of things will really rise when I turn 50 and want to retire. To achieve this I will need to invest in equities and double my investments every 6-7 years + add family money + keep earning a corp law salary and hope that the salary doubles every 10 years.

This looks impossible right now, so I may have to shift careers and become a politician or a farmer (or even both, which is extremely common).

A young, honest and smart lady judge who is a Cambridge graduate. The Cal HC has now lost her to Telangana. Does anyone know why she herself requested the transfer? The official SC order says “personal reasons”, but such requests are always made specifying a particular court where they would like to go, usually because they have a spouse or children or aged parents living there. In her case, she said “any other HC in India”, which is very weird. She did not specify any particular court.

Could it be that she was fed up with the constant politics happening in the court and saw a better future in ANY other part of India than Bengal?

Incidentally, two more well-qualified young judges have left the Cal HC recently: Justice Bobby Saraf (NLSIU alum) for Allahabad and Justice Lapita Banerjee (Leeds alum and UK-qualified barrister) for Punjab.

What’s going on? Why the sudden brain drain?

Ugh. I dont like some of the stuff these students do. Israel Palestine- they were just wrong. But just because someone is wrong doesn't mean we dont let them speak. It is supposed to be a free country. If someone "propogating" their views is harming you- You should get some thicker skin. thats not harm. Calling for temples to be destroyed is no different than calling for mosques to be destroyed- its all garbage politics that doesnt help anyone. We shouldnt engage with any of it- but we shouldnt ban any of it either if free speech is important to us.

Right wing folks celebrating here should introspect. Theyre always whinging about moderation on LI- and I agree- there is a bias. But they support censorship when it comes to university spaces? how do you square that circle?

My family has a farm which has basically not been actively farmed since my grandfather died a few years ago. Quite big (50+ acres), but my father has barely been able to keep hold of the land, much less farm it since he didn't grow up farming like my grandfather. I've been thinking we should use the land and farm it properly - it's interesting to get some real insight into the challenges.

Bhai bura mat mano. Tech ki halat kharab hai. IIMB and IIML has issues in placing people. Even though there are more tech+mgmt+consulting+startup firms.

One can literally count the Tier 1 law firms in India. Leave the "law and international development" the visa issues for even STEM grads in USA is bad. The European economy is anyway dead.

Point is, buddy, yeh bakchodi chhod do. Sarkari naukri nikal nahi paegi (yeh mat chillana ki I don't give a shit about Govt. job. Nikal ke dikhao Grade A non-contractual job) aur private ka haal behaal hai.

Plus, Goldman Sachs report says, law will be the most disrupted by Gen AI. Maybe the best lawyers won't feel the itch, par average & above average lawyers will. And the Lala firms will lay off anyone deemed disposable.

Toh yeh bakwas of Left, Right, Idealism mat karo. Everything is getting extremely extremely competitive and organised. Even Grade D jobs have dedicated YouTube channels with 20 lakh + views.

So, apna bhala soche. Jindal will march on. And for that matter, any big private/public university. Chillate rahiye angrezi me. Better is get the degree, be self sufficient, create a YT channel like Soch by Mohak and spread awareness and evidence based policy making.

Aage aapki Marzi.

ID has NKC support. Dube duo worked in NLUJ before permanent placement in IIT KGP Law. NKC was the PhD supervisor for Dube duo at CU Law. Dr NLM was NKC's PhD supervisor and mentor at Burdwan law. When Dr NLM started NLUJ, the Dube duo and some others from Bengal were recommended by NKC to NLM. Every VC needs a core "safe lot".

Later when Dr NLM exited NLUJ and was involved in starting up IIT KGP Law, the Dube duo moved too. Dr NLM tried very hard to install NKC as the Law School head when NLM was moving to KIIT. But IIT KGP Law rejected NKC. Later NLM helped NKC secure the directorship of KIIT Law.

Follow the IoUs (as also some other things) and the ducks line up.

Hot water? Really? The EC didn't care when UGC funds were looted by all those very clearly mentioned in the Justice (Retd) PN Sinha Inquiry Committee. Later when PIB buried that Inquiry Report and kept on with his maladministration and financial shenanigans, the EC unanimously gave him a second term. SJA had protested, petitioned etc then as well but to no avail.

Even when PIB exited finally in 2018, EC allowed him to "resign" and remained indifferent when Lord Taluk and later NKC killed off those inquiries. EC didn't even care when the state govt initiated an inquiry that deeply troubled NKC. And that inquiry report too got buried.

Where is the evidence that VC is in hot water with EC? Has the EC initiated an inquiry against NKC for the so-called unapproved release of funds to iPleaders? Did the EC ask the VC to formally explain how NUJS lost in HC, arbitration and in the SC? Did it ask how and who chose the university lawyers and the briefing that they received from VC?

Has the EC initiated an inquiry against NKC for not completing the inquiries that the EC itself initiated?

Has the EC initiated an inquiry against NKC for the alleged SH complaint? What about the much talked about FIR? How does the EC ignore all this especially when it has at least 4 faculty members who are now at loggerheads with NKC.

Maybe it is the Associate Professor who is in hot water for overplaying her hand.

Why only the inquiry specific to Effulgent? What about all the other inquiries that the EC directed from mid-2019? And what about the Justice (Retd) PN Sinha Inquiry Report?

PIB and even Lord Taluk had vested interests in killing off those inquiries. But NKC came with a "clean slate". He left CU Law just before TMC came to power and after a detour or two served KIIT Law for nearly a decade.

NKC was bleached of all red by the time he applied for VC position here. So why did NKC actively kill off all the inquiries and heartily embrace PIB acolytes and their counsel?

Ek kaam kar. https://visionias.in/resources/all_programs.php?c=mains365 Iski economy, international relations, social issues, security aur Polity puri padh. Padh aur ratta maar. Now, once you are done, come back here and answer this question -

Did you have enough information about India and India's economy, administration, and issues which plague India to ask this question? Did you realize after reading this document how complex and multi dimensional every topic is and how every decision we take has pros, cons and a madhyam marg?

Now delete the thread.

Nope. When SJA placed the evidence before the AC and then EC, that faculty member couldn't even muster whatever evidence you are citing here. Whether she resigned later etc was never the point as regards Effulgent. The records clearly showed that she did not disclose to the AC and EC that she had a direct stake in Effulgent and a vested interest in shepherding the deal. The lady could have have simply recused.

The lady was very much a director of Effulgent when the deal was being negotiated and signed.

Prabhu pehle nikaal lijiye. Pehle hi soch ke baithe hai ki UPSC CSE ke interview me red tie acchi rahegi ya blue tie professional lagega. Abe pehle PRE, MAINS clear toh karo.

Similarly, first crack the exam. And the objective of NLS is to give good legal education which they are providing. 3y LLB means you have already been through college so you are mature enough to make better decisions.

Why India has this level of handholding shit? All students going for MS network, inmail, try and get into companies. College, that too for a PG, doesn't owe you this placement.

Placement aur package hi chahiye toh better apply to ISB Hyderabad. In 1y, you can get into MBB consulting firm like McKinsey or Product Management at Microsoft or Google. Product mgmt will have 100x better WLB too (unless you are laid off).

Anyway, my summary advice will be to crack the exam. Come back here after May 1st week and ask 3y LLB students for advice. Pretty sure they'll give genuine gyan. Par bina "Provisionally Admitted" ke thappa ke, yaha pe aake Magic Circle Magic Circle chillana bewakoofi hai.

This is like I have 6/6 in one eye and 6/12 in other (while the requirement is 6/9 minimum) hence, I cannot be IPS. Abe pehle nikal toh lo, phir UPSC pe court case kar dena.

Sort of agree. Jalpaiguri has the HC Circuit bench. But NBU Law is already there. Darjeeling is politically important to TMC. Hence Darjeeling could be on the short list. Also Siliguri since it has an airport nearby.

Locating a "law university" in Bongaon wouldn't be considered "big" by the Matua community. TMC has already given them a full-fledged university, which can expand further.

Asansol/Durgapur isn't just Ghatak teriitory. The region has other satraps as well. Also it has a functional airport nearby and several industries and urban areas.

Bhai dekh. Pehle toh authority aur tag tag ki chinta chhod. Kuch nahi hoga. With this mindset literally I am telling you, you cannot start a tech company in India.

You know what I realized seeing the IITians and their companies? Most of their companies are shit and have 0 tech. Yes. 0 tech. Web development and creating a website like meesho is not tech. Any tom, D and harry can use no code tools to build such things. I will bet my life that any good enough Bengaluru private college CS grad can build those things. Tech means Neural networks. GPT level. Yeh bakchodi nahi jo tech ke naam yeh log karte hai.

Look at Amber, Powerplay. Is it tech? It is shit. Any final year or 1y experience android developer from a Tier 5 AP college can build it. Then why are they successful?

Because they try. And not give up. Yes. They try. They try the stupidest of ideas while my smart friends continue with their mediocre jobs or try doing MBA. I am sure some people are catching this idea - as it is evident with the success of Astrotalk.

So, the point, the alleged - "capable people" are not exactly that capable. And you anyway, you have no other option than to compete. Now the question is how to compete? And is there any example? Google J Sai Deepak. He is a Mechanical Engineer from Anna Univ. Pretty sure no one can counter him on his strong areas and he'll get a RS seat soon. Where did the unlimited talent NLU kids go?

So, what can you do now?

1. Use Instagram and put out reels. In Hindi. See legal.lucknow handle. Authority figure is someone who the janta thinks is an authority. Whether NLS profs think you are authority or not is irrelevant.

So, put out reels explaining law, explaining the nuances and boost it.

2. Similarly, write on LinkedIn. Now 100 paragraph gyan documents. 3 para edits on the new updates or explaining complex topics.

3. My english is okay. I went an international competition. All elite college students came. A friend told me, mug up your facts and be thorough with your research. Yudh angrezi ka nahi, gyan ka hai.

I countered the shit out of those Dhirubhai Ambani SoBo kids with my tuta phuta english for 2 days.

So, make sure your research is top-notch. Use chatGPT 4. (Download Microsoft bing, now use copilot ) and ask questions like it was an assistant.

4. Pick up fights with the best in business. It is funny, you know. People want Govt to listen to them, and Bibek Debroy posts every day on LinkedIn and he get 2 likes and random influencers get 100 likes for their "25 learnings under 25). Go and comment below Ashwath Rau LinkedIn post or AMS's tweet or posts with facts and references. People will be forced, yes forced, to listen to you.

Finally, lado. Ratta aur gyan ready rakho aur nazro me aao. Phir dekho kamaal.

I was born and raised outside Kerala - in Delhi and Pune. I was thinking of giving a try for Judicial Exams. Kerala is among one state I am planning to attempt as I know local language. I have two years of work ex in corp. And will be starting preparation from scratch.

I can speak Malayalam, but my reading and writing skills are weak. Will it be an issue while giving the exams?

I am writing Judicial Services Exams in other States where Hindi is local language. How difficult is Kerala Judicial Services Exams? How to go about it? How to prepare?

Any tips and tricks are appreciated!

So, I have noticed recently that a lot of emphasis is put on sharpening one's drafting skills. I understand the natural advantages that come with it. But is it true that there are people who are earning good bucks by just drafting contracts as a freelancer ? Would love some insights on it.

Both are false, which is because NIRF does not verify any of this data. Ever since that has been realised, some of the dishonest people in the system have been citing such fake data including giving the highest salary offered as median salary and many other things. This is why people who are aware of such matters do not trust NIRF data or these rankings any more.

Well I'm 23, And I can relate to your story. Coming from a complete outside background - non-nlu, first generation, no connections and money too. Wasted 2 years in Covid and started my journey in final year. Worked my ass off, planned and connected like crazy- have more than 6000 connections on linkind and my every post gets more than 200 likes even today. Towards the end of my college , I though I would make into a good firm, however, di not. Nevertheless, got into an award-wining boutique firm and started my law career. Was the first one my peer group to get a job . Worked for a while and was getting interview calls from tier firms even before completing my first year. Though i was riding high. I was ahead of my peers, even my seniors and super seniors. I though i'll make ahead. Was doing good in the firm, represented clients against people like Indian Railways, Priti Suri Associates, Bharucha, Delhi Transport Corporation, International Banks etc. Got 1700 rank in Clat PG- highest in my college. Cleared various entrances like NALSAR LLM in IBC, SLAT PG, LSAT etc. I had it all. .... Then came the down fall, I got egotist. I though I deserved more. Thought I was ahead of my peers, my colleagues, of anyone. A family screw up made me leave my job and sat at home for a month. Felt devastated, felt like crap. I was inches away from clinching a top-tier job, and now was sitting at the bottom. Started applying again, but no avail, no jobs at all. Now being offered jobs at pays even lower than my first job with attitude of people at their worst. Imagine the downfall, in just a matter of 6 months. Being looked down by everyone, most of all myself. Now I have come to terms with reality, our ego is in our head, We are not as great as we think, just when we step out our bubble. The world is large and we are just tiny specks of our imagination. People have privileges and they can use them whenever they want to. Now I am seeing people way below my aptitude climbing ahead me, three of my friends got good jobs and they thanked me for guidance in some capacity

The bottomline is , We have to live with our lives, our strengths and weaknesses, perfections and imperfections, goods and evils, and we can never fully come to terms with the success of others. No. So don't pity you, enjoy you, enjoy who are you, being you, what are you.Bloom where you are planted, coz u don't know what worth you will have somewhere else.

If his parents are communists, presumably they will support him and challenge the decision in court? Is that happening? Frankly, he may stand a decent chance because he was having a discussion among a small group of friends and didn’t know he was being recorded.

But I’m also curious why two communist parents will put their child in such a capitalist and elite law school! 😅

I am a graduate of RGSOIPL, IIT Kharagpur. I would like to inform everyone that Prof Dube was acting Dean, holding the rank of Assistant Professor. This happened after Prof VCV left.

In terms of his record, Prof Dube and Mrs (Prof) Dube were not popular or highly respected, to put it mildly. That’s all I’ll say. The point about student-authored publications can be verified by looking at their publications list.

In contrast, Prof Dube’s successor, Prof SV Joga Rao from NLSIU, was very popular at RGSOIPL. Prof Joga Rao is also much liked at NLSIU as a teacher. His classes on evidence law are quite famous and RGSOIPL students he taught also benefitted from his lectures. He has also been a litigator and has valuable practical experience, in addition to contacts with many generations of NLSIU alumni.

As for Prof VCV, he was also well-liked at RGSOIPL and has a pleasant personality. The most positive change he made was in the area of curriculum reform and in building the exchange programme with GW law school, funded by Mr Vinod Gupta.

If this makes you feel better, I should tell you that being an NLU grad I think I have not been prepared to face the reality of the legal profession. NLUs keep you so academically involved that you hardly get time to learn the nitty-gritties which goes into litigation and corporate jobs both. Where on one hand, your interaction with clients is something that you learn on ground in corporate, in litigation management of the case with basics such as drafting of replies/petitions again is not easily learned. And those shitty one-two internships don't help. It is the stupidest idea I think. Sure, keep internships of 1-2 months for the initial 3 years of law school. But in senior stage, internships will only contribute meaningfully if they are for 3-4 months at least.

When we NLU grads enter the market, we are laughed upon by Traditional College grads for basics like not knowing the process of filing and drafting. And very rightly so. NLUs (Tier-1) are only good if you want to study law due to academic interests.

You are one of the very luckiest person to have done law from non-NLU place and survive the demanding turf of litigation. For most NLU grads, then can't make it to litigation and go beyond their 30s with the mark of practicing advocates. Cheers to you mate.

I remember when I was in school, often during periods when class was cancelled, I would sit in class and daydream. Slide into my own world. Or maybe think of about some incident that had happened and rewind it in my brain to rethink how else I could have handled it.

In school/ colleges, “daydreaming” is looked down upon as it’s considered a waste of time. Seniors considered that maybe in that time the student could get so much more done. Hustle and don’t waste a single moment was the common refrain.

Since joining a law firm - your mind is constantly racing - there’s hardly any time to day dream. Instead it is replaced with stress, anxiety,

and a constant need to achieve efficiency in work.

Do you ever think - maybe our minds need a period of rest, when we can just be and not think about getting some work done. Maybe daydreaming is good for our mental health?

Maybe daydreaming wasn’t a bad thing after all?

Hey! Every college has different groups.

Some groups smoke weed, drink, smoke cigarettes etc. Some just drink, some drink occasionally and some don’t do any of those things.

I feel like most people smoke up at night to slow down and relax with friends. But few people (maybe depends on NLUs and wealth of individual) also do hard drugs in their rooms or parties. This percentage is definitely lesser than the weed folks and rare. Weed is more acceptable amongst the student crowd, hard drugs not so much.

An equal minority is the non smoking non drinking group, but they do exist.

You’ll find your group when you go to college. It’s ok :)

I graduated from a non-NLU, later on went for my LLM in a NLU, NLS to be exact. I was always very ambitious, yet I didn't know anything about law and therefore didn't give the CLAT in my UG, later on when I found out about CLAT I gave myself an excuse that great people can come from anywhere. However once I joined NLS I found out how much opportunities, resources and guidance I missed in my 5 years studying in a private college. I joined NLS LLM happy that I secured a top position, yet I graduated depressed that I missed and was devoid of opportunities in my 5 years of my college life. I am currently practicing law. However during my one year in NLS I found that there were people , legends, authorities, scholars, much above than my own capabilities. That's when I finally realised I'm medicore.. average.. my self esteem shattered. I saw people who did their grad in NLS and PG abroad, phd aboard, internships at great places , jobs at international law firms. I felt gutted. I am in my 30s. I am doing the best in my litigation. But somewhere I feel I will always lead a medicore life forever. I will never be able to compete with people who did their LLB from NLS and PG/PhD/work experience from university/ work exp abroad. I will always be a random lawyer from a third world country that will never be an authority in his legal life. Being ambitious I am leading a medicore life. In short I'm struggling in life. How do I accept that I am medicore and there's nothing wrong with being average ? How do I limit my over ambitious goals. How do I enjoy my life without feeling this mental pressure. Please provide geniune replies. I need help. 🙏🏽

These are just reasons you are coming up on your own. None of these is relevant for a person's suitability as a VC. What needs to be seen is what if anything Dube has done as an administrator during his tenure as Dean at IIT KGP Law School and as VC at NLU Meghalaya. As for the other names whom you mentioned, other than Prabhash, neither Vishwas nor Nemika has got an impressive publication record since that is the only metric that you have discussed here. Nor do they have any admin track record of their own. Faizan is interested in AMU more than any NLU now, but he does not care about any institution rather always looks for the next best available opportunity. He has also left a place like NALSAR in considerable mess, so not the best of choices at this stage. Maybe someone like Nigam, who is the Registrar of NLS now, can be considered instead. The person has to be able to present a good front to the rest of the world including governments and foreign universities, as well as bring projects and funding to the university, while encouraging research among faculty and students and uphold academic standards, all the while balancing the relationship with the state. A tall task for anyone TBH.

Seeing a lot of optimistic media coverage saying Modi will win and the Indian economy will get stronger. But the fact remains that our country is too overpopulated and there aren’t enough jobs. So you have jobless randos rioting and disrupting life like in Delhi today, while the middle class is being overtaxed to subsidise the poor (after netas take their cut).

April ka wait karo, phir to KCo mein WFO ka nanga naach hoga.

I m anticipating a few couplets from Amar Sinhji on the importance of attending office physically.

Partners ko bhi pagalpan sawaar hai ki you cannot network without coming to office. Corona ke waqt to Mera popat networking karta tha na office jaake

What do you mean by 'still'? You are not late bro, considering the market scenario. I hope it doesn't happen to you, but it might take anything between 0-6 months even after graduation for you to land a job. So I don't say chill, but don't be too stressed also. Best case if you think this is very much a possibility for you... Join a chamber in your own city and work for any amount they offer. You will have PQE to show in your CV in any case.

Has anyone from the Batch 2020-25 of any college received a PPO from CAM yet?? And does a callback at CAM mean anything positive in the direction of getting placed? What is a good time to do a callback internship at CAM if someone from the 2020-25 batch is looking forward to getting placed?

I am not that old my friend ;).

I was also lost post graduation not knowing what to do. Started working at no name firms but pushed myself (read destroyed personal life) till I reached where i am (i am still not as senior as i should be at my age).

Just grab what you can find and give it your all. You will learn and you will get noticed

Watch this video by DownToEarth on farmer income: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U56YAOaoem8

I especially recommend from 5:20 onwards where it isn't the DTE reporter talking but the Professor from IIM-A's Centre for Management in Agriculture is speaking.

Hi everyone. I am a Non-NLU student who secured an internship at KCo. How do I impress the interviewer, associates and partners of the firm by my words and work respectively. Is it possible for a 3rd year student to secure a callback internship ? And are there cases in KCo where callback internships in 4th year can translate to PPOs?

Do you really think NLU students will tell the real placements of their colleges. Hell No! Everyone wants their college to shine in D measuring contests and hence will inflate their placement rates here to satisfy their ego. I don't think in reality any NLU except NLSIU has more than 70% placement rate.

As a first generation university degree holder from a primarily agricultural family from Punjab that most of you believe to be full of rich farmers I can say this -

1. On average a farming household makes Rs. 10000 per month per acre.

2. Around nine-tenths of farmers hold less than 4 acres of land in the country. In monetary terms, around Rs. 40000 per month.

3. This amount is not available monthly as the money only comes in at the end of a crop cycle.

4. With an average crop cycle of 4 months, the majority of the farmers make Rs. 1,60,000.

5. This amount is not really ‘income.’ It is revenue generated.

6. Part of it is reinvested in procuring seeds for the next cycle.

7. Another part of it goes towards paying ‘farm help.’ This is needed, at a minimum, to quickly reap the crop upon ripening and get it to the market before any unseasonal rain destroys it. Usually, the ‘help’ is in form of extra hands. Sometimes, combine harvesting machines.

8. Another part of the revenue generated goes towards repaying loans on things like tractors or submersible pumps (needed to irrigate the crop). These are loans that are occasionally waived by governments. However, till they are we do end up accounting for them from our revenue.

9. Another part of the revenue is used towards getting pesticides needed to keep the crop healthy over the next cycle. These are ones that are subsidized. But, we do pay for the part which isn’t subsidized.

10. Having removed all these costs from the revenue of Rs. 1,60,000 for every 4 month cycle, we are left with the ‘income’. This is not a single person’s salary like the one you guys get. This is the household’s income. The Indian government pegs it at 4 people.

11. Ab woh 80000/90000 per 4 months for 4 people comes to an income of around Rs. 5000/6000 per person per month. Kya dein isme se?

12. Lathi khaane ke baad doctor ka kharach isi mein se nikalta hai.

13. Namak, cheeni aur tel si basic cheez bhi yahin se aati hai.

14. Gai bhains ka kharacha bhi yahin se. If we don’t keep and tend to them, then milk and milk products ki cost padti hai.

15. My parents saved so much out of this to send to university. Couldn’t go a NLU like most of you because we never had the means to pay for it.

Bahut mehnat se iss zindagi bahar nikaala hai parents ne kyunki koi future nahin hai. Aur aap mein kuch isse ‘best career option’ samajhte ho. Sharam karo ki apne desh ke kisaan aur kisaani ke baare mein itna kam malum aur itni choti soch rakhte ho.

Every litigator dreams of taking practise from District Court to Supreme Court. But is it THAT easy ? I hardly see anyone in my district to cover that range.

Yes, people from NCR has that advantage and it maybe very possible for them. But not for people living in say, MP or Bihar .

Opinions pls

Incidents of drug abuse have been found in certain cases:

Faizan only has admin experience in his favour, nothing else. His last stint at NALSAR did not end well either with him trying to get another term using students and SidC as proxy. These things stay on with you. The committee isn't really required to cite any reason for their choice, unless the chosen fellow does not meet essential qualifications.

1. By that metric, even Sudhir doesn't qualify, since he barely publishes in any peer reviewed journal himself.

2. Faizan's publication record isn't anything to brag about either. He mostly writes newspaper op eds and disseminates his views through his YouTube channel and interviews.

3. There is zero chance of the ten year rule getting waived for any public university in India at present. There will be immediate litigation. Even Sudhir had to qualify that, which he just did, courtesy MP Singh. You are just spouting random names now. Nemika is a great candidate simply because she topped her batch? She doesn't have any experience whatsoever as an admin anywhere. There are good candidates available if the search committee keeps an open mind, but they probably won't. It should ideally be someone who has studied or at least taught successfully at a good NLU.

I agree with most of what you say. If the TMC loses seats in the LS, they will enact a range of populist measures, one of which will be two campuses of NUJS in other parts of the state. Where I slightly disagree is the two locations. I will go with Jalpaiguri (not Darjeeling) and Bongaon (not Asanasol). Jalpaiguri because there is a circuit bench there already and the TMC in weak in North Bengal. Re Bongaon, it is the home of the influential Matua SC community, which can swing seats. Asansol was named only because it is the law minister Moloy Ghatak's constituency. Ghatak is losing his clout and has been summoned repeatedly by the ED in the coal scam. Asansol is also not less important than Bongaon. The other step could be 70% domicile reservation.
