Oye mate, why marked this trollish? I have seriously seen this happen so many times. The 'really damn good' seniors never pull such slime on their juniors. These people are genuinely warm to their juniors. The mediocre ones on the other hand, pull such power trips on their juniors because they want to trot haughty, and unke juniors ke alava, unki sunne mein kisiko padi nahi hai. Juniors got no option but to bear the whole drama of the senior to the point of weariness.

There is never an "inheritance" when a karta dies. The JFP continues to be owned by HJF and the eldest of the co-parceners becomes the karta. You may not need anything other than a death certificate of the karta to show the HJF is comprised of X, Y and Z. The succession certificate business is only when the property is self acquired. Legal heriship certificates are what revenue officials issue, and don't necessarily carry legal weight in a lot of states. Succession certificate is what is given under the Indian Succession Act by a court, and is evidence of ownership of the property in question by succession after the petitioner establishes title by succession.

Does students being left wing really even poses a problem to address? With more knowledge, factual information and creativity, It is pretty hard to stay right wing. Once you have logical and common sense, the amount of faults and loopholes in right wing ideology becomes clear, and one is able to see that there are no "wings" in ideology, but it's just a matter of intelligence.

Lawyers in US, UK , Singapore earn way ahead of our peers in India. This can be seen even with trainees earning 50-55,000 pounds in their first 2 years of traineeship. A starting A0 in UK tier-1 firm (Like HSF, Sidley, Dechert etc) earns approx 140,000-160,000 pounds. This is basically what counsels in India earn.

These statistics can be verified at Chambers Student profile of each firms

If your wife insisted on visiting her parents in a far off suburb when u had plans with friends and she cancelled your trip to make it yours, what wud be your reaction?

Also this is clearly mental cruelty, and considering the recent judgements I don't think it's hard to expect a hard divorce decree with the husband refunding that trip amount

Update: A hearing took place on 16 January, as scheduled. Unlike previous hearings, at least some progress was made. AUD's counter-affidavit was accepted. Also, the survivor requested that she be allowed to refute the averments made by Liang in his petition. The court accepted her plea and gave her 4 weeks to do so, plus gave Liang the right to file a rejoinder. The court listed the next hearing on 24 April.

So, it's now been nearly 6 years and 13 hearings have taken place. We seem to be 3-4 hearings away from concluding the written submissions. Optimistically , one hopes this will be done by 2025 and the arguments and cross-examinations will be completed within 4-5 years after that, and a verdict reached by 2030. 🤞

Today the Jindal VC sent a long mail announcing the launch of the Jindal India Institute on public Day. He said: "I wish to emphasise that JII will not be dependent on any Indian political party or faction. It will be non-partisan in terms of its affiliations with corporate houses and foreign partners."

Um...ok. But this is what the website shows:

https://jii.jgu.edu.in/

- Director of JII is Prof Sreeram Chaulia. A known BJP supporter who has written pro-Modi books and comes on Republic TV. The website landing page even has photos of Chaulia with BJP ministers Jaishankar and Hardeep Puri.

- Advisory board has Salvatore Babones. Again, a known Modi supporter who comes on TV and supports Modi. Also important are the omissions. No Ramachandra Guha, Gilles Verniers, Christopher Jaffrelot, Jean Dreze, Jayati Ghose, Nivedita Menon, Siddharth Vardarajan, N Ram etc.

- The vision statement of JII says: " JII is meant to intellectually decolonise the study and depiction of India. Today, while India is fiercely independent and protective of its strategic autonomy, there is still a tendency among many to look up to Western educational institutions for intellectual affirmation, approval and disapproval of what India is and where it is heading. JII aims to break the intellectual hegemony of India being other-defined and usher in a culture and practice of high-quality research, analysis, policy advocacy and trainings that enable a self-defined and self-confident India to emerge as a world leader."

This seems to be coded RW rhetoric. One of the BJP's biggest taking points is that there is a "colonial" bias against India exhibited by both the West and Indian intellectuals. The "decolonisation" rhetoric has found its way in J Sai Deepak and Arghya Sengupta's books.

Note also the talk about India being a world leader etc. No talk about problems facing India and criticisms of the Modi government.

Also, this comes amidst a series of questionable acts at Jindal, such as disciplinary action against Prof Sameena Dalwai, writing a letter criticising Prof Achin Vanaik and expanding in STEM subjects rather than social sciences.

No, the situation is much better there. There is a doctoral committee who gets to decide whether the thesis is good enough to be sent to evaluation. If the evaluators okay it, then no further delay by the VC before holding the defence. Obviously alum may get a few more breaks, but that is not a factor of discrimination.

Bhai I am in a T1 NLU and meri do mahiney ki lag gaye, thanks to my batch rank but seeing my batchmates, agar T1 NLUs walo ko lagane mey etni mushkil ho rhe hain toh NLU Sonepat ka hoga bataon? Bacche ko jhuth bolkar career kharab mat karo uska. Good words won't feed you at night, a reality check will.

No. I joined in-house right out of college. Close to two years in the company. The work life balance is great but the knowledge and money is very sub par. The growth in salary is at a snail's pace and the work in itself gets monotonous after a point of time .

If you want a decent work life balance, stability in work and are okay with less pay then you can totally consider. However if you wish to grow as a professional and earn well then stay away.

Has anyone secured assessment internship at a firm without previous internship in the firm/ without placement cell support?

Most firms prefer giving assessment internships to students who have previously interned or through rcc.

Please suggest any firm that gives assessment to first time interns in final year. Any lead will be helpful

Thanks

It's clear that you are a Sudhir fanboy who cannot read and comprehend properly. The comment said that the alternate checks as proposed did not exist, not that student feedback does not. It does, contrary to claims that it is a bad way to judge a teacher, that's the only way to understand classroom teaching quality.

This faculty superiority is just a smokescreen. The NLS faculty are not ahead in any parameter including research. With regard to classroom teaching, so long as the students of NLS don't prove themselves to be ahead of those from other law schools, which they have not for a decade now, including Sudhir's tenure, it is not objectively proven that their faculty are teaching law any better overall compared to the other NLUs either. So currently it is a mere narrative and not a fact.

Two words: Shehla Rashid. Hardcore LW andolanjeevi and Modi-hater while at JNU. Today, she is a total conformist and bourgeois salaried professional who tweets in favour of Modi. In college, she dressed in a very simple manner. Now, just look at her Insta page: she wears tons of make up and expensive clothes, goes to fancy parties and restaurants.

Proof that youth makes you rebellious and leftist, age makes you conformist and right-wing.

Litigation is small fish being chomped by the so called biggies. Face value and all is just a smokescreen, the real key is how good you're at being in good books of other practitioners. Law degree has probably one of the worst ROI India, not only in terms of money, but also per your quality of life. Litigation will drain you of your youth, and these measly payment chambers thrive on dangling rotten carrots before juniors. Look around if you can get a decent senior. The ones with okayish seniors have some future, okay? Don't waste your time and youth over your present chambers.

girls dont get ragged, neither did the 27 nor did the 28 batch did. And even our '26 batch did not get ragged.

Guys more or less, but random shit like sing songs, make a train (lining one after the other) and dance around, but this is never extreme.

And at the risk of overemphasis, there is a rule of "uncomfortable" at nalsar - if you are uncomfortable by any interaction with the seniors, you can just state you are uncomfortable and leave.

Good paying without any prior experience is not possible in this field. Get your foot in the door through contacts or something. Gain experience there which will enable you to have something to include in your CV. Stay at that place for some time. Then make a switch to better paying places.

You are right. NLS will remain way ahead any other NLU. Not even 5% toppers of CLAT choose Nalsar/Nujs or NLU Delhi over NLS. Faculty at NLS far far superior now. The gap will further increase in coming years.

Future tier wise ranking:Tier 1: NLSIU

Tier 2: Nalsar, Nujs, NLUD

Tier 3: NLUJ, GNLU, NLIU, HNLU

Tier 4 & 5: other nlus

Can a student or alumni of NALSAR give a geniune reply ?

Recently I saw a post on how opaque and subjective the NLS PhD process is, and how it ultimately depends on the whims and fancy of the VC.

Is it the same for NALSAR ? Does the PhD process only favour ex-NALSAR, people with experience or with a tier 1 background?

I hope someone who comes from a non-nlu and joined NALSAR could help shed some light.

If he is A0 it means he is an expendable fool whose opinions count for jack. You can literally tell him to go F himself on his face, and there is nothing he can do to you. No partner puts any store in what an A0’s opinions when it comes to recruitment (or for that matter, most other matters). Be bold and fearless and don’t take no rubbish.

Rich farmers: No tax.

Rich MPs: No tax.

Rich businessman routing money through Mauritius: No tax.

Salaried class: Taxed to the eyeballs.

Why is it so? Will it be different this year because of elections?

The ironic part is that the educated middle-class (Hindus at least) are loyal BJP supporters, yet they are not given any benefits.

I am a 2nd year student in a T1 NLU. I don't think I would honestly. I have been studying in a consistent manner since the beginning and I have a CGPA which is pretty good though not amazing. At a certain point CGPA is determined by raw talent and dumb luck, neither of which everyone has in equal measure. Neither of these two factors are going to change for me if I turn back time. Further, I have tried my hand at almost all co-curriculars as well.

I think there are really only three major reasons why anyone would want to redo law school: 1) poor academic performance, 2) lack of participation in co-curriculars, or 3) poor decisions which affected their social life or networking opportunities. My law school journey so far hasn't made any of these things be true for me.

how they will understand basics of constitutional law without studying political science? You please explain to me? How will they understand contract or corporate law without understanding what agency or consent or legal fictions mean? How they will understand labour law or taxation without doing economics?

Learning subjects in one order or the other wont sway your political orientation just as much as eating entrees before appetisers will change the calories you consumed. Please stop treating students like idiots. There is a free marketplace of ideas and they can choose what to believe- and they will change what they believe as they grow. If there is suppression of any political ideas on universities that is a problem we can discuss, but this and all is nonsense. Left wing orientation doesnt happen by and large because people dont have jobs. They have pretty socialist governments in scandinavian countries where people are very employed. And theres a lot of unemployed right wing folks.

Mostly people lean to the left because the left makes a moral case that is appealing on identity, workers rights, inequality, and poverty. No one is choosing to stay unemployed because of their left wing orientation either. at least not in a poor country like india. Make a better moral case. The left is vulnerable on a lot of that stuff- how we resolve problems of identity or inequality or poverty or provide for workers rights- capitalists have good answers to that stuff sometimes. But they never make it. Even more polarizing issues- abortion for example- right wingers have a good moral case on that- they just dont make the good moral case. Instead of questioning the value of life and whether there might be better options than abortions right wing goes on to shame women for having sex or worse getting raped. Thats the problem.

If you find yourself on the losing end of an argument- improve your argument. This whole- indoctrinate them by making stupid changes to curriculum strategy is old and it doesnt work. Maybe in schools- but at universities? No way!

Yall are so polarised and inside your own bubble you have no idea how to even begin convincing someone who doesnt agree with you.

Most students who come in to law school arent firmly left wing in the first few years- most people as a whole are centrists- they change their mind because there are moral cases made by left wing scholars that students are exposed to. If you dont like that sociology for example is taught by predominantly left wing folks- go into sociology, get degrees, teach it. Economics certainly is not taught with any real left wing tilt. Neither is history or political science. You read lock and hobbes and smith and mill and a fair number of what would today be considered capitalist literature in all those disciplines. The right wing students on campus simply dont have the courage of their convictions to engage in argument or the interest and ability to make a case for people who disagree with them. Thats where you get in to trouble.

(Posting again as I got no responses)Hi everyone! I'm a final year non-nlu student currently interviewing for the A0 position at S&A (disputes). Would anyone who's worked there before be willing to share what the starting package is like there? As no such information has been provided by them with regards to pay. I've heard the pay package is different for nlus and non-nlus, but that's about all I know. Could someone please share?

This is HUGE. Apart from probably leading to another Constitutional Judge bench case, this will have massive political ramifications.
