I agree that there's an issue about the number of students being taught per elective. That should be increased.

However, in my personal experience, I haven't faced any sub-standard material being taught to me by these profs.

Nonetheless, my point still stands, if you search for what you need, you'll find it at JGLS.

Hey no need to attach him lol. Im the gay guy above btw. They probably are still under the societal pressures to even recognise others as something other than straight than to even assess themselves. It's okay. ive seen many super homophobic guys "experiment" and become full on drag clothes gay.

So basically it's a spectrum and everyone is on it. No-one is perfectly gay nor is anyone perfectly straight. Only society conditions everyone to be a perfect being, when that needn't be the case. Also I dont mean to characterise only gays and straights as perfect, its to show the spectrum.

(I didn't downvote this comment.

This has become the new normal now. Massive data collection, often compelled by the government for goods/services that do not need any of such data, and then eventually, the inevitable leak. Some digital infra we are creating in this country!

Don't use the money saved for rainy-days for your day to day expenses. Starting with a senior is a good strategy. This is will keep you afloat. Work with him/her for sometime and parallely keep trying to get a steady flow of work. If you are a first generation lawyer coming from a middle-class background, it is going to take some time. It happens with everyone who is similarly situate, so don't worry. There are no time-lines, as to when things will happen, it will happen when it has to happen - and for some - it never happens. Keep patience, keep trying and keep hoping for the best. It is only at the end of the life on can say that it happened or it did not, as you never know - when it is going to click in your favour and the next day you are driving a Bentley. Everyone survives, so relax. All the Best (I guess, I have given you more gyan than you asked for).

To answer your last question, anyone who is or has been on speaking terms with the founders like Menon, Mitra et al would know that, it isn't exactly a state secret. You clearly know nothing about NLSIU.

As for IILUER, Jindal charges same fees and incurs greater expenses. They have bigger campus, better facilities and pays faculty a lot more. BCI isn't doing any of that in Goa. It's a sham place meant for squeezing money.

Your opinion about israel offering peace solutions is laughable. It's like me saying agree to all my terms and then i won't kill you. As for killing babies, so you are saying that israel is taking revenge for that by killing the Palestinian babies. Well spent money on your education! slow clap

The new manupatra update is terrible. The interface used to be so easy. Exactly this pharse, proximity, AND OR etc everything at one place.

Can someone tell how do i see if I've already clicked on a case law. Earlier the link used to be blue so i would know that i have already seen this case law. Now everything is red.

You misunderstand the meaning of "free speech." Free speech means free of government interference. It does not mean consequence-free speech. Private employers in the US have the right to hire and retain whomever they wish to, so long as they do not engage in prohibited discrimination. Refusing to hire ass clowns who support terrorists such as Hamas is not prohibited under US law. Any US-oriented colleges or businesses who catch wind of Jindal folks supporting Hamas are forewarned; one should expect doxing and complaints to the Indian firms who hire such participants. Ask the Indian jatkphatka group Ghungroo at Harvard that signed the pro-Hamas statement. They'll rightly suffer for that for years.

As a fellow Jindal student, it is sad to see you make such claims about our faculty, especially the law profs. No other law school in the country offers as many diverse electives as we do. Our electives are offered based on niches within niches. With profs like Arjya Majumdar, Karan Latayan, Manveen Singh, Manasi Kumar, Indranath Gupta, Avirup Bose offering courses like Securities Regulation, Commercial Contract Drafting, Merger Control, GDPR v. South Asian data protection legislations, Standard Essential Patents, EU Competition law, what else do you classify as commercial?

There’s no doubt that NLUs and other universities are better than Jindal right now but making such a generalised comment without considering the opportunities JGLS has to offer probably showcases how you’re not making the most of what’s available.

Don’t even get me started on our CLAIM and LEAD courses. If learning was the outcome that you’re basing this on, set aside credits and grades, what more do you want than to be taught commercial law by the likes of Partners who have 20+ years experience at firms like SAM, CAM, AZB, NDA, Khaitan etc.

With no malice at all, I sincerely advise you to sit in these courses and just reconsider what JGLS has to offer.

From your comments you seem to be some troll hired by JGLS or someone from within JGLS ! It is very apparent! Don't do this kind of activity. Just like Jindal, IIULER students too come from rich backgrounds and, just like Jindal, they also do not require a 'naukri' only! Also, if you think BCI is a trash organisation merely because it has setup IIULER to compete with JGLS and NLUs then you must either leave legal profession or leave India or join and change BCI! ........and how do you know that BCI had no role to play in setting up or running NLSIU?

Please don't do it. Someone interned for two months, pulled all-nighters with the team, had good reviews and still wasn't hired. Even if you do get hired, you will leave of your own volition within 3 months. Just ask anyone at the firm / anyone who was at the firm / past interns.

To the practitioners who have read this thread on LI.

This event is organised by a handful of virtue signalling liberal arts professors with degrees from foreign universities no one has ever heard of. Their credibility is absolutely zero and are the kind of professors who would mark a student based on their political ideology and not the quality of the paper.

What’s worse? Yes, Jindal has a reputation of being a libbie echo chamber, but that ideology is largely spearheaded by a coterie of underperforming liberal faculty with no actual connection to the law and students with fledgling academic performance but a shit ton of daddy’s money.

The point of this comment is that most of what the liberal vomit that originates from JGU is from a handful of students and faculty. It isn’t representative of the thoughts that originate from a majority of the students, most of us are actually hardworking and aware of how privileged we are. The liberal agenda more often than not makes headlines and that offsets whatever progress students make on their own. Just a request to actually look at a student’s CV before writing him/her off as a privileged brat… some of us are, but most of us not.

Events like these are a sham and most of us do not support them unequivocally.

5 years to understand basic documentation and diligence (ie most usual investments and partial exits) and around 10 years to understand the more complex adjustments in M&A documents (ie more the "why" of those adjustments rather than the drafting of those adjustments - an understanding where you will be able to help the client add exceptions to adjusted working capital, adjusted net debt, or adjusted EBITDA definitions which the client may not have considered) and tax structuring.

I’ve known CS folks who work and worked at tier-1 firms, so they would have experience dealing with lawyers. Not saying this ranking is perfect or anything, all the NLUs are interchangeable in one metric or another in reality, but for the sake of opinions, I don’t think there’s a lot wrong with this.

I will be interning with them soon. I would like to know about the internship in general, what the work culture is like at the Delhi Office, how they assign teams, the policy for Pre-Placement Offers, and the pay (fixed + variable). Also, how many interns do they take in each month, and how many people work at the Delhi Office?

Additionally, please feel free to share any other crucial information that I may have overlooked but is essential to be aware of.

No so explain what they should do? They pin point locations, they avoid bombing high population density areas, they even drop leaflets, do phone calls and texts and other kinds of announcements to tell people to get out. What is your solution for them? Should they just let hamas kill their babies rape their daughters and kidnap grandma to maintain moral high ground in your eyes? I'm seriously asking- What should they do that is not suicide?

They have offered peace through out history- each time they have been rebuffed with prejudice and then a hamas sends in rockets to kill babies and keeps attacking them in these horrenduous ways.

Pretend for a minute youre interested in actually finding a solution to this problem and not in just virtue signalling- that you actually want peace for palestinians- what is your proposal to achieve that? that jews should just let themselves be killed?

Hi,

If it's financially feasible for you, I would strongly recommend sending your war to one of the top National Law Universities. It can truly make a big difference in how they are perceived as a student (speaking from personal experience), especially when it comes to things like internships, particularly if they are planning to work in India.

But remember, in the grand scheme of things, the college you attend is not the be-all and end-all. Your ward's hard work and dedication are what will ultimately lead them to success. That being said, enrolling in a top NLU can definitely give them a valuable edge during their formative years.

Good luck.

I heard the same about the mobile deposit thing. But I have also heard that they have loosened this policy a bit in the present times.

A friend of mine interned there so I know that they pay their interns very well. Your stipend as an intern depends on the number of hours you have put into billable work. He earned somewhere around 20-25k for 1 month.

How is Israel killing Palestinian civilians including children and the old mercilessly helping them to protect civilian life exactly? You all keep saying (rightfully) that Hamas is a terrorist organisation that does not care for human lives. So doesn't Israel, despite actually being a legit government, but you refuse to acknowledge that.

This ₹766 crores will also come from taxpayer money. It is not as if Mamata will pay this from her personal wealth. She became the CM because of this case. I am amused at how / why WB residents voted for her and keep voting for her.

BTW, even Kejriwal is in the docks - summoned by ED.

If you look at everything from the point of view of "enhancing CV" then most things you do will not make sense. This is the case with the current generation of students in India. Everything must be linked to ROI and enhancing CV, if not it is not worth doing.

Presenting at a good conference gives you things - first, networking, i.e. getting to know people in your discipline; and second, confidence to be a good public speaker. You can decide whether these enhance your CV or not.

I am from a 3rd tier law University. We have no guidance when it comes to research papers. However I have an interest in research and have written a well researched paper. But, How do I get published ? I have no idea. Does anyone have a guide on how to do this ? Should I directly contact the journals or wait for a paper call. Which types of journals are worth it, as in I can put them on my CV ? Does anyone have an A-Z blog, book, course from where I can learn all about publishing. I did Google but it's not India specific, mostly US or UK results on how to get published. Please help.

For all the kids here complaining, read the article below. You need to work hard to get ahead in life. Simple as that. Easy courses and grade inflation at law schools is making you guys lazy.

Narayana Murthy Doesn’t Know Working for Less Than 80 to 90 Hours A Week, Says Wife Sudha
=========================================================================================

https://www.news18.com/business/narayana-murthy-doesnt-know-working-for-less-than-80-to-90-hours-a-week-says-wife-sudha-exclusive-8639575.html

As always, the proviso goes: be careful before meeting anyone you meet on the anonyous internet in person, always take lots of precaution, tell several people where you are going, meet in a public place for the first few times, potentially bring a friend, etc, and don't just share personal information without the require due diligence.

Caveat emptor, etc. That said, good luck on your room mate hunt! :)

At our end, we don't track IP addresses on LI either, we only record an obfuscated and encrypted IPs that looks like this in your case, for example, and which is also not a completely unique identifier:



Further, this pseudonymous IP encryption key gets reset and thrown away every 24-48 hours, so even if we were really clever and really wanted to we couldn't deduce your actual IP from this after a day or two.

Of course, end of the day, you kind of have to trust us on this and despite our measures to safeguard your anonymity and using an encrypted https connection, it's theoretically probably possible for tracking at your ISP, law school, firm or Pegasus-spying or NSA level to deduce posts that you make.

In short, if you're really really really worried about this or you're leaking state secrets, probably don't use the internet, or if you are, use a VPN and/or Tor and other measures to protect your anonymity...

irony of ironies- this is what article 13 of the hamas charter says :

"Initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences, are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement"

I wonder if theyll talk about that at all? or is at all gonna be illegal occupation, apartheid, lalala - none of which are factually true?

Its not their territory. Jews have lived in judea since the common era. They have been driven out of that land by christians, muslims, arabs, ottoman turks, romans, and the british- but they have kept going back because they are the natives of that land. Learn some history.

inb4 " so youre saying israel is always right" - no ofcourse not, but if you use nativist logic to justify the massacre of women and babies- rape and child murder- then not only are you just- awful- but youre also just wrong.

Israel as a state has existed for 70 something years. It already exists- to debate its existence now- existence not its policies- is antisemetic. Israel has offered a two state solution multiple times in modern history, it gave away the sinai peninsula to egypt to get peace- ehud barak and clinton worked together to give palestinians more land than they currently hold- much much more land- but the PLO refused because they didnt want a half a loaf of bread- they wanted the whole loaf. From the river to the sea means from the jordan river to the mediterranean sea. This is a religious fundamentalist movement. What happens to the only jewish country in the world if that goal is achieved? What happens to jews who live there? where do you propose they go? Europe where they were rounded up and sent to gas chambers? Maybe america where theyre subject to the violence of right and the left? australia where theyre chanting gas the jews? If they dont stay in the only land they have consistently called home throughout history- where should they go?

When you look at history- Hamas is clearly an organisation that is not interested in a two state solution- they have walked away without a counteroffer multiple times, they construct tunnels underneath hospitals and they use those tunnels to smuggle in weapons and not food. How many new schools has hamas built in the last five years? Where does Hamas' money go? There is constantly humanitarian aid going into Gaza- where does it all go? This is a religious war for these people and they are fundamentalists and they are terrorists.

There are actual facts in this situation- its not about turning a phrase around or saying "no u" . its not about clever wordplay. Educate yourself.

Civility? From people who have on this forum said the most anti semetic things one has ever heard?

This is what article 7 of the hamas charter says : "The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree, (evidently a certain kind of tree) would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews."

This is what you think is civil? This is what youre comparing to israel trying to protect civilian life while fighting an unprovoked attack on its citizens?

https://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/hamas.asp

Here is the hamas charter- Read it fully before you make a fool of yourself. Surely if youre right you shouldnt be scared by the information no?

thats not necessarily true. Its true for an increasing number of people- but - lets say everyone from before law school batch of 2018- You only really did an LLM when you got a scholarship and you only got a scholarship if you worked really hard at it and were motivated to do it. Many of the people who do LLMs dont want to practice. For whatever reason they find other things more interesting.

I think the colonial stuff is honestly nonsense. Its our insecurity that makes us resent people who are successful in the world. An Oxbridge HYS/ Ivy education is more rigorous than what you find in any law school in this country and most universities. That is just true. Just reading scholarship that these students produce versus students with the same level of education in India- the difference is stark. It is not nice. And it doesnt mean people who study in india are less talented or capable inherently and can never improve or compete- it just means their education system has not served them well. I wish our education system was far better, but if we refuse to even concede to that obvious fact, if we refuse to recognise our own shortcomings, we really have no hope at all of improving things. Its not a colonial hangover to say- hey maybe some things are better in other parts of the world.

Theres no "destiny" in life. Youre not actually cut out for anything in particular. You can choose to do something or not. You might find somethings easier than other things- but you can choose to do things that are difficult because you want to do them/ find them more interesting/ whatever. You have free will- choose what you want to do. Life is just better when you do whatever you do- well- like work hard at it, remain driven toward your goals, and try and give to a community.

NLUs have a whole range of faculty, some are pretty bad and some are great as is the case with most colleges, nlus or not. Regarding the infrastructure, you are mostly right but you'd also get used to it pretty soon.

The one advantage NLUs will have over JGLS is just the number of students and the competition that you have to face. The crowd of students is (mostly) pretty impressive so your work ethics and quality will improve, but what is a better advantage is the fact that you could be as mediocre as it gets and you would still be fine. There would be maybe 100 kids in your entire batch out of which most would get placed, some even in firms abroad. but in a private college with around 600 kids in a batch, you will have to stand out and compete with a ton of people as compared to in a batch of 100 odd kids.
