I think the lesson from today is that the BJP and Modi are rock solid and will win in 2024. For me, the best comment about the election results was made by Tehseen Poonawalla, who is a Congress guy but a critic of the way the party is heading. Tehseen said that the Congress should stop being woke and move towards the centre. Couldn’t agree more. The other thing they need to do is stop associating with corrupt regional parties like RJD, Samajwadi, DMK and TMC.

And who exactly show loyalty to? Saraf and his gang who split the firm, or Rajiv Luthra who didn't care much for the ones who actually stayed back, or the family who didn't give two hoots to the loyal ones and handed over their careers to a certain someone who has no market rep or to the one with no market rep and his team who again are hell bent on destroying the firm? Pray tell!?!?

Actually, what is Sudhir's publication record? For all the fanfare, i cant think of a single defining or standing out publication that he has. Same goes for Chauhan (who is a great classroom teacher by the way), Nigam and Rahul.

Also, who makes a list of good law professors in India without Chimni. He is the most well known and respect legal scholar from India. I dont think anyone else has made the sort of impactful contributions that he has.

They may have those books in the library. That does not mean every student will get the opportunity to have constant and regular access to those throughout the semester. If you want to have personal access to such books throughout the year, then either you will have to buy or photocopy those, or else try to convince the library to invest in ebooks, which can be accessed by all the students from the library website simultaneously.

2023 is the unluckiest batch .Why coz u guys built a base before the COVID hot and did a lot of internships or whatever.For us, there was no learning, no networking and least of all no internships or practical learning . Basically u guys would bounce back from this in an year or so but for ppl whom were intellectually scarred from the pandemic are reeling and would not recover ever due to the crucial time lost.

Hey thanks for your comment. I was thinking of working in a law firm for a few years and switching back to a company maybe after 10 years when I have good savings. I haven't defined "good" yet and I'll have to figure that out with time.

Moreover, I wanna switch to a law firm that pays well because that's the only way I will find the hectic life worth it. A lot of my friends are living a VERY hectic life in law firms but they say that on most days, they think it's worth it. I feel so too. Plus it's very satisfying to do some proper work and give inputs. I have a few good internships so I am hoping it works out

Hi, I am a 3rd year student of a T1 NLU and want to build a Real estate-heavy CV as I want to practice in my hometown and there is mostly Real estate work in the city.

Can someone guide me on the things to do in law school that will help me secure internships and then placement in Real estate?

I am from one of these private colleges. The placement scenario has been made in my college. Although the college is in a metro city, it is located on the outskirts. We have to compete severely with a T-1 NLU. Due to this, our placement scenario has been abysmal. We have primarily gotten local chambers or law firms and business companies hiring for legal roles with really bad packages ranging from 3-5 LPA at best. Nothing more. And, I am not even sure if a lot of people got placed for these jobs because, for all you know, the same company would have approached other colleges than mine. Apart from this, a few students in my college have grabbed a PPO at T-1 Law Firms by their own merit and effort (idk how, but i am going to say they had the network/contact to do that).

I would strongly advise against it.

Academics quality is low due to good faculties leaving and the ones that remain simply do not care about what they’re teaching. So, learning at Nirma is 2/10. (2 for a few faculties who spend effort)

Placements are at an all time low. Only 20 students have a job right now (4 PPOs and others Campus placements below 9LPA). The placement committee does not function properly and not even a good T3 firm visited this year. Placements are 1/10.

Internship cell does not exist. Student find their own way out. 0/10.

Extra-curricular are great but that’s because of students’ individual effort. The college helps very little in promoting and supporting moot, debate, adr (no exemptions, no mentors, etc).

Extra-curricular 7/10. (Student efforts)

The other cons are as follows-

- 85% attendance rule. 70% is necessary by hook or crook.

- Increasing batch size for freshers and lowering of quality of batches.

- Not helpful with running internships and giving exemptions for even assessment internships.

- No MOUs, no contacts with firms.

Nirma batch of 2024 has only seen 3 good PPOs till now. A few ~10-12 have gotten sub-par campus placements.

Others remain without jobs. The campus placements suck and the record of placements is at an all time low this year. Imagine only 3-4 out of 240 got a decent job.

That is if you go through the placement route. Through the ppo route no one gives a shit about marks. I got a ppo in the 4th year and I was interning with the firm for a year, the partners didn't even know which college I was from or which year, they saw the work and recommended me for a ppo.

So, the results are pretty much final now. BJP has won MP, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, Cong has taken Telangana. Good results for all the NLUs, because national parties are always better for NLUs than regional parties. NALSAR was suffering under BRS and NUJS has been totally destroyed by TMC.

NOTE: AAP is a national party, not a regional part, hence NLUD’s success is intact. Similarly, CPIM is a national party, hence NUJS did well initially.

Tell me you've never practiced without telling me you've never practiced.

How would every single law college, approx 600 in India, find adequate number of professionals for subjects like environmental law, international law, human rights etc with 15 years of experience?? Do you want MC Mehta to teach every law school one day at a time or maybe contact ICJ for international law lawyers. Even criminal, civil and constitutional lawyers with 15 years of experience would not leave their practice worth lakhs for a measly wage that's paid to professors.

Generally law firms have trading policy which has a threshold, below which you don't need any permission. The value can vary from 1-2 lakhs (annually) depending on the firm.

Further, some firms say that they have a trading policy and one can get the permission if they want to trade in a security but most of the time the permission is not granted.

To sum it up: equity investing is allowed but with prior permission which in most firms is not granted easily.

I am a girl intern at a t1 firm (on paper t2 but pays as well as t1), accidently spilled coffee on the table I was working. The associate got really angry and told me to take the table cloth "home" and ensure it is washed and cleaned properly by Monday. This is so humiliating . I don't have cleaning equipment at my pg. Shall I tell my team's partner about this? She seems really nice and would probably veto such a punishment.

Once upon a time she was the favourite of this 'certain someone' too. She extracted everything from him / her including his / her health.

While she would pretend that loyalty matters to her - it's simply a gimmick to exploit you.

You are merely a commodity for her.

Hey, I know very unrelated to the opinion you've shared but seeing that you've got an AIR 250 I can't help but ask for some advice as to how you studied for current affairs section because I am also preparing for the said exam but unable to know how to go about it. Looking forward to a reply from you, thanks.

I had it too with the same team. Towards the end of it (around the end of 7th week) the HR tells me that there is no vacancy. whereas the partner tells me that my work was not up to the mark.

I have no issues in accepting that my work is not great, but till date I am confused whom to trust. the partner or the hr

Spoiler alert: Bro join a better company which has lot of litigation or compliance or contracts work. I would strongly advise you against going for a law firm since the timing will be too much along with toxic culture. The move is actually the other way around, where people switch from law firm to in house. If you think you can take toxic rude people along with fake deadlines then please join. I made a similar switch and found the working of law firm very very toxic. Law firm badi choti sab ek jesi hngi. Bht soch samjh ke switch kariyo bhai. Dubara firm se company aney mein thoda tym lg jata hai. And there will be chances that within months you will feel stuck in law firm. Join better company then joining a law firm. And still if you feel ki you want to join toh there are many boutique firms which will take you in for GC/banking team. All the very best. PQE of 1+ in house would be ideal for a switch.

Saraf acc to the posts here is a questionable place to work - as an intern you want to have actual confirmation for 4 things - An actual written communication for the certificate, having a good reputation and ability to switch jobs due to that reputation, possibility of a callback and the possibility of a PPO.

Do your month or two at Luthra, get your callback offer for a few months ahead, and in the middle do your first internship at Saraf. Play both sides, the partners do not care about you. They want their ego trip.

Whatever you do, have their written assurance as well of the HR.

As a GB 2024 student of JGLS (who CHOSE JGLS over a T2 NLU), I highly recommend taking a T2 NLU as:

- if you are paying 47 lakhs, for substandard facilities (and government college type infra and un-hygienic food along with unsanitary living conditions) + government department like treatment/no accountability of admin officers like registrar, chief student affair officer, new programme head of 5 year programme, etc., it is better to chose a T2 NLU over JGLS as there you will get all this for less than 10 lakhs.

- Degradation of faculty over the years: University has undertaken aggressive expansion and so has seen a quality drop in faculty. Basically the model is to have 2-3 big names and do PR with it and 100 substandard faculty (who teach majority, if not all of your courses)

- Poor placements: After paying 47 Lakhs, less than 5% of the batch gets placed. Despite having 1000+ kids hiring pool, in absolute number terms the placements are more for NLUs (even T2) than here.

Consider the above- i.e., substandard living conditions qua the cost of said services + Bad admin + no job after grad (cost coming to 47 lakh), best to go for T2 or even T3 NLU as you will get all of the above for much lesser cost.
