Bigot Rightoid unabashedly unashamed to dehumanize and bash others whose views don't necessarily align with their worldview. Anyone who doesn't respect the identities and experiences of others cannot be even left wing or a sane human. LI is a rightie platform predominantly with far less overt discrimination that's all.

Partners who read LI ( ik almost all of them read on a regular basis), please share your networth (not incl spouse), possibly current income and how many years of experience did it take to build this NW and lifestyle.

Since I'm from Mumbai,I know the living expenses and lifestyle most like to have or atleast pretend to have. Keeping the conversation going -

If you are a faculty member from the VBR support group ('vocal for local'), please note that your patron has also left the institution. If you would like to do further damage to the institution, do not expect the students to meekly surrender. There is a storm brewing and neither the KDR-KVR faction or the VBK support group has any clue about how to govern a law school in the 2020s.

I don't know why the students who want to go for Law firms flex so much!! Like always just giving fancy names to little things, and taking name of Partners and firms, as if they are sitting there for making you the Partner.

Why is it so? In reality they have to sit in a cubical and curse the team, isn't it? So, Why do they flex so much, this moot, this firm bla bla bla..

PS : Just curious to know the reality of such people, who just flex so much. Specially at Tier 3 NLUs.

Your state university's apparent disadvantage is offset by the internships you have done. Tier 1 and 2 internships should ideally help in landing a job, if that is what you are aiming at. For reaching Tier 1 law firm, you will have to join small boutique firms and then climb the ladder.

Apart from applying online, I would suggest you to visit the offices of these small places in person. Properly dressed (in uniform obvio), with a copy of your CV and internship certificates. You will have a good chance of starting as AO.

this is SO dumb. Its shocking. Did you even study history? To say the British East India Company was a capitalist enterprise because its a company is like saying hitler was a socialist because he was head of the national socialist party.

Both colonialism and slave trade occurred in authoritarian anti liberal states. The east india company specifically engaged in creating monopolies and limiting free trade to protect its revenues. Free traders at the time even protested and proposed legislation and argued for breaking the monopoly. Do you really think we have lived in a capitalistic free market world throughout history? how shockingly ignorant.

Why is it so rare? Most of my friends are far-left, with extreme opinions on foreign policy issues like Israel Palestine. At the same time, the bunch of "right wingers" we have are simply too toxic and hold extremely sexist and transphobic views. There seems to be an overall lack of level-headed people. LI is very right leaning, particularly on social issues (makes sense because the site is dominated by cishet males), while many tier one NLUs so far-left that they endorse violence (such as the October 7 attack)

Good, bad, or ugly for NALSAR. Thoughts? Will this malaise spread to other states as well?

If you start reading up on the field that you mentioned, instead of trolling, you would learn that it has benefited considerably from 'BA subjects'. I work in that domain myself and can vouch for the applicability of sociology, linguistics, psychology and economics in it, along with ethics.

Obviously not. Simply put, Dalveer Bhandari is not from the Law School™️. A much better candidate would be Jhopdinandan, batch of 2015 NLSIU who is currently a junior at chambers of Tiku Sahu and has written 2 blogs on international law, both published in the prestigious NLS Law Review.

Bestie you live in India, the country that was subjected to 100 years of subjugation and plunder by a literal company.

Tf you mean colonialism and slave trade are opposite of what a capitalist system would have. Both have already occurred in a capitalist society.

What do you think the East India "COMPANY" was?

My god

People do reject offers for assessments if the offer is not from a well known or well paid law firm and the assessment is.

Your second paragraph didn't make sense. If they are not inclined to hire the firm shouldn't offer an assessment. No scope to "pester their way into the position" lol.

Whereever führer Ved Kumari is, you should avoid that place. She is right now in NLUO, so please avoid NLUO. She is an epitome if a dictator who just have no vision and is there primary to enjoy a power trip. She relies heavily on psycophancy of people to make her feel good about herself. So, the quality of education is out of question in her adminstration. The better of a psycophant a teacher is, better is their exposure in academics and adminstration. This in turn has only persuaded mediocrity in academics as all teachers with true passion for teaching (mind that there are only few of them in any law school) have either been forced to teach a subject they know nothing about or have been made to eventually leave the college (primarily beacuse they weren't a good of a psycophant). In conclusion, the quality of education is really bad, as of today, in NLUO.

(PS: please

NLUJ and GNLU- both are great colleges, but NLUJ is older and its academic standards are better. On the other hand, GNLU is a fast-growing college with a supportive alumni base. GNLU and NLUJ have both been performing excellently in moot court competitions. NLUJ has a better sports scene than GNLU. Overall NLUJ closes under AIR 400 and GNLU will go AIR 450+. I would have chosen NLUJ based on my preferences.

Let's do a comparison with UK universities. Here is how UK law schools rank in the QS global top 200:

2 - Oxford3- Cambridge

7- LSE

14- KCL

15 - UCL

17 - Edinburgh

32 - QM

46 - Durham

56 - Glasgow

57 - Manchester

59 - Bristol

88 - Nottingham

99- Leeds

101-150 - Warwick, Birmingham etc.

150-200 - SOAS, Cardiff, Sheffield, Liverpool etc

Currently, NLSIU is ranked even below 200, in the 201-250 tier. It shares space with lowly regarded colleges like Newcastle, York and Essex. Very obviously, this is not a fair ranking for NLSIU, if we consider alumni achievements, placements, moot courts and success in Rhodes and Gates scholarships. Faculty quality is one criterion where NLSIU was lagging a bit, but Sudhir has changed that by booting out mediocre TLC profs and hiring star alumni profs.

Thus, what would be a fair ranking for NLSIU in the Sudhir era? Can we say in the top 20, at par with KCL/UCL/Edinburgh? Or do they have superior placements, alumni, moot court achievements etc?

How about at least top 50, at par with QM, Manchester, Glasgow etc? Surely they can't be much ahead of NLSIU?

What do you think, friends?

Your ignorance is quite amusing -

1. India's foreign policy has NEVER been blind support for Israel's war crimes. India's long standing foreign policy is supporting the 2 state solution. Recently, when the incumbents started deviating from it on twitter, the spokesperson for the MEA reiterated that India supports a 2 state solution.

2. ICJ judges are supposed to be independent members and not 'representatives' of their country of origin. The ICJ President, who happens to be American, also supported each and everyone of the provisional measures announced by the court. The judges likely didn't want to put their credibility at stake, at least while the bombs still rain down over Gaza. History will not be kind to the Ugandan judge who voted against each and every provisional measure - even the namesake ones which the Israeli judge signed on to.

3. You clearly have no idea about the workings of the court or the proceedings in the instant case. For your sake, i hope you're just an overenthusiastic first year law student whose been brainwashed towards the right and all it's bullshit. A qualified professional not giving attention to these details would be quite appalling.

No. Please see the conditions one must fulfil to be eligible. Only someone who is, or is eligible to be holding the highest judicial office of the country may be nominated. In India this would mean that only incumbent CJIs or SC judges in line of succession through seniority would be deemed eligible. The selection pool in India is rather small, at any given point of time.

What do you mean going against the government? As a judge, he is supposed to be independent. That is also literally what the other judges did. Nobody voted on country positions, except ad hoc judges. That is not how international courts work.

Before questioning someone else's international law credentials, focus on your own first.

How is NLU Mumbai doing ? Firstly, if you look at tier1 city NLUs like Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, Gandhinagar and Hyderabad, the location advantage, are doing well. Mumbai is one of the best cities to establish a career. So unlike others they can't complain of being in a no name city. Second, majority of the top ranks actually do join MNLU, so again it's not the top choice but still not the last. It gets fairly good rank students. Also heard their faculty is good as well. So despite this why are we not seeing it rise in ranks like NLUD, NLUJ or GNLU ?? What happened to them ?
