If stray dogs attack people, those who feed them could be held liable: SC, ET LegalWorld (indiatimes.com)https://legal.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/industry/if-stray-dogs-attack-people-those-who-feed-them-could-be-held-liable-sc/94110361 LIABLE TO BEAR COSTS IF ANIMALS ATTACK PEOPLE

worked in GC for a year. As a new associate, lot of the work is conducting DD, verification of claims made by entities by scouring through VDRs and summarizing your findings. Work was repetitive for me in the first 2 months, since all your work has to be checked by your senior to ensure that they correct the mistakes you will inevitably make, so they tend to give you work that is easier to correct for someone with experience. The documentation is often voluminous, and confusing because there will be a lot of forms, reports, resolutions etc. that look similar but will have a minute difference which is what you're looking to point out, so reading that will take time and effort, at least initially.

Is it interesting? For me, yes and no. Yes because everything I did was new and something to learn, but the work itself isn't inherently interesting. When it starts to get diversified such as assisting on drafting SHA / SSA, research for issuance of legal opinion etc, it gets better.

I left the law firm to join a family member's practice but I wouldn't mind continuing in the firm tbh.

This comment is by some pro-admin person most probably in the SJA. Several people have caught guards staring at girls. Some of the guards are sexual harassers and frustrated people and have been making weird, objectionable comments on couples. In the name of the registrar, they are directing all boys and girls to stop walking or even talking on campus. They are closing almost all public spaces, and now if they stop boys and girls from even walking (not makeout; simply walking), it is extremely ridiculous and not expected from NUJS admin.

This is absolutely true. There have been multiple occassions where the guards have stopped couples from even walking in campus. Not even makeout. Even when couples are talking or walking, the guards have come and simply switched off fans and directed boys and girls to go their respective hostel rooms. When asked why can't boys and girls even walk or talk in campus, the guards have said that the Registrar has directed them to do so.

This is simply fascism. The guards literally stare at girls and couples, and over the last 2 weeks, they have been doing such weird things.

DON'T BUY ANY OF These if you are a lawyer.

Firstly, if it's just for gaming. It's fine. Because your gaming and work laptop should be seperate.

Also, a lawyer using a gaming laptop looks childish. It's immature to go to a conference with a gaming laptop.

Also, these laptops won't last more than an hour or two (battery) as thier powerful GPUS take all the power.

To preserve this platform like it is.

Well, People tell we can use Reddit instead of Legally India. But that can't happen.

Why? Reddit for every single answer you need a username. Otherwise your partner could easily track down who's bitching about him or her. Reddit is not truly anonymous. Legally India is.

That's why people even divulge information on NDA here on LI.

So LI should atleast exist. That's the first goal. It shouldn't shut down.

But you will have to sustain yourself or your family, right? Litigation is not the choice in your 30s or 40s especially if you are a male. If you are a female then maybe, as you will have some cushion but I still don't think leaving a good banking job and joining litigation is a good idea.

It is interesting to observe that people trying to remove the dogs from NLUJ, have no valid argument supporting their illegal demand, neither are they engaging in any fruitful discussions and this is the same condition in the university. They are asking feeders to take responsibility and are offering no reasoning on why they should take responsibility. Because you say so? That's not how things work. They are offering no useful solutions, nor are they explaining why the solutions the other side is offering is not feasible and are asking feeders to take responsibility. Why should they take responsibility. This is exactly why nothing to actually counter the situation is being done.

If you want to remove dogs, go ahead and do it but face the legal consequences because obviously it's illegal and there will be consequences :)

Buddy I am so sorry. I didn’t notice that you only wanted to go to law after ‘Woking for 2-3 years in the banking sector’. In that case , opt for exams like NLSAT. You can keep options of DU 3 year LLB as well/MHCET 3 year LLB.

Speaking about the prospects - I will say it’s not bad. You will be eligible for the SEBI Grade A legal manager exam. It will quench your thirst of banking sector a lot. You apply to several independent banking law firms as well. Start out with boutique firms. The legal insight will surely be an advantage in your CV and ofc for your competitive career as well. It will help you in your workplace as well! All the best!

My point now stands proven. This is the exact elitist and classist behaviour of people pushing to remove dogs from NLUJ. Lol, it will be very disappointing to observe that the world doesn't revolve around you. Unfortunately we have to share a space with you people like you as well. They even look down upon other batchmates and are extremely intolerant to any opposing views, going as far as to harass people with alternative views and spreading information and not engaging in a civil discussion with other viewpoints.

Just visit NLIU once, a huge green beautiful campus. Surrounded by two dams. The evening walks in NLIU is a blessing especially in monsoons. The hostels are fine and comfortable. The academic blocks can be improved and the process for the same has been initiated. The new convention centre has been built with world class amenities. The sports infrastructure is best among NLUs, it has all the facilities.

If you are a non NLIU student, just try to visit NLIU for any competition or Virudhaka(sports fest). You will definitely not regret it.

Thanks if you read the comment till here.

No holding emails? I once got such grief from the PAs and my partner for not sending a holding email at about the 26 hour mark- for not sending over to client, our details for getting registered on the system. The bill was to be paid 6 months later anyway and I hadn't slept for 24 hours working on some mundane port EPC contract. 🙃. All easy until the shoe is on the other foot.

Hi, I just finished my UG in English Hons from a Local Uni in West Bengal. Right now, I have 2 ways forward - 1) My parents, peers and well wishers wanted me to prep for Govt Exams(PSU Bank Exams) and get a job in next 2-3 years. 2) I have applied to a local uni for LLB and I am sure that I will get there. So, law is another option.

P. S. - I don't have a financially well off family & I don't have a connection/network in the legal profession.

Personally, I am completely clueless on what kind of professional career I wanna to make. I literally don't know what I really wanna do.

Would be very happy if you give your valuable 2 cents to resolve my dilemma.

We get to be the only consistent nlu to be in touch with the parliament for criminal reforms ❤️

1. Looks- definitely matter, but not as much as guys look for in girls. If someone is modestly ugly and atleast dresses properly and maintains basic hygiene, it's perfect 100%. (yes, many(most) guys don't even have basic hygiene). Unlike guys, we do understand that genetics cannot be altered, and you can always improvise on maintaining your health and body.

2. Resourceful- Everyone prefers someone who "brings to the table", so yes it matters for you to work atleast and make a living and not dump everything on the girl and be her sugar baby. However it does not matter how much you make. Female partners in several t1 firms are known to marry PAs/ Counsels making half the money they make. If a girl is saying she wants to marry a millionaire/ crore"pati", she is not the right girl and will suck off that money before you know. But guys like to generalise all women as this.

3. Time- There's a difference between working 24 7 and not having time to spend, and having 4 hours apart from sleep time and drinking with the boys and then saying you got no time. Girls want time to be spend with you. Girls also work hard for several hours and understand the value of time, and if you love her, she will even give excuses to accommodate you. Sadly many guys don't value this.

Just want to address the concerns of hygiene and safety, I am a student of NLUJ, our freshers party was yesterday, half of the students were drunk, and there is vomit in most of the sinks in the washrooms and shared spaces, the hallways and this happens a lot on weekends. There have been drunk students assaulting other students.

These are some of the people raising concerns of hygiene and safety regarding dogs on college.

We are here to study and we share a common space with the dogs who were born here. The entitlement of people pushing to remove the dogs does not surprise me but all their concerns would be taken seriously if they actually care about safety and hygiene, not just when it is an inconvenience for them. No one is asking these people to take money out of their pockets and feed dogs, they can very well use it for whatever they please, just don't dictate how we should use our money. And yes, we are not going to adopt every other dog and bring them home, this campus is their home, they belong here,and deserve to be here perhaps even more than you do. You are welcome to dictate us and ask us to adopt dogs, thank you, might consider it, might not, come to a discussion with practical and reasonable solutions.

I #StandWithDogs. I feel the people spewing hate speech against dogs are psychologically conditioned by prejudice. Note the comment about dogs licking, being impure, being a nuisance etc. It's rooted in the purity-impurity divide in Hinduism, the notion of dogs being unclean in Islam and also the secular bourgeois attitude of selfishness and lack of compassion (Ayn Rand). The true status of dogs was outlined by Sai Baba of Shirdi from this well known story where we took the form of a dog. We should all follow the moral of this story. God lives in all creatures.

Priyanka Chaturvedi is chairing it. I guess interested students can DM her on Twitter, but it will be better if campus RPCs formally approach her. However, I feel she should only hire committed opponents of Modi and not people looking to add CV value. It is unfortunate that many NLU students are Modi supporters cosplaying as liberals to get certain internships/LLM scholarship.

Nope, I'm a liberal, but I don't support dogs in campus, I paid a huge fee to be in the college. I do not want to be attacked, everyone is not a animal lover and animal lovers are welcome to adopt them. Just don't force your choice on us. These Animal lovers will go to any extent to blame the victims.

Most of these animal lovers are rich brats who grew up with pets and have enough money to keep a pack of biscuits every time they are outside of their room. I don't want to get bitten by them, I don't want to be licked by them, it makes me feel unclean, and I don't want to spend money on their upkeep no matter how small the amount may seem to you.

I just want to feel safe when I'm roaming around the campus for which I paid a pretty heavy fee.

Like all issues, this has become a political culture war on campus. Liberals support the rights of dogs to stay on campus, as animal rights are a natural extension of their belief in human rights. Conservatives oppose the presence of dogs, because they are not believers of human rights.

Lol, by all means, please go ahead and best of luck, because you will really need it for establishing a feeder's responsibility :)

And we will continue feeding, and we reiterate, no feeder is going to assume responsibility for the living expenses or medical expenses for anyone injured by the dogs.

Maybe the INC appointee recruits from NLSIU, the AAP appointee from NLUD, the TMC appointee from NUJS etc? This could build a formidable force. Students too could prefer working for INDIA's Research Committee rather than Vidhi, as Vidhi is toeing the establishment line.

She can be reinstated. TCS did something similar in 2015, and on Madras HC intervention, TCS was ordered to take the employee back.

SSS and his family are worth over 2000 cr. They can pay arrears anytime they want, without it even affecting their net worth (even assuming that the firm is undergoing a cash crunch).

It would be relevant to recall that during the Saraf vs Luthra case, Luthra coughed up 75 cr overnight, without any hesitation, as if its pocket change to him. This from a guy who has been running a firm for around 20 yrs and now compare that to SSS whose family has been in the game since over a century.

I'm a fifth-year law student from a private law school. I have interned at tier-1 IP firms and done some TMT advisory work. I aim to do advisory work pertaining to the media and technology sectors in the future.

Given my college's limited placement support, I am seeking internship opportunities with firms that do not heavily rely on placements and where I can potentially secure a Pre-Placement Offer (PPO) based on my performance. Could you recommend specific teams or firms that align with this objective?

They are not mad, you are just uninformed. A basic research will tell you, if dogs are removed from an area, the area will be repopulated with other dogs.

The solution to relocate them is embarrassingly ineffective and unoriginal and moreover, illegal. The dogs are aggressive because they are either in heat or hungry and regularly feeding them, neutering them and vaccinating them is the only viable long term solution and this responsibility falls upon the administration of a college not on animal rights activists.

The people wanting to get them relocated are just trying to illegally remove dogs and resort to a rather ineffective strategy. All the best to that.

I have compiled a list of laptops, but I am not sure which one to buy. I intend to use it for gaming, so it should have at least 16 GB RAM, and minimum 8GB VRAM, but I dont require ultra high settings, high to medium is fine by me.Here's the list. Please suggest the best one from the list.

1. Asus ROG Strix G15 Advantage edition

2. HP OMEN 16,Ryzen 7 7840HS/NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4060

3. HP Omen 16,Ryzen 7 6800/NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070ti

4. ASUS TUF Gaming F15 (2023) Intel Core i7-12700H 12th Gen, 8GB RTX 4060

5. MSI Delta 15 Advantage Edition

6. Asus ROG Strix G15 with 3070ti

I need this one to last for atleast 5 years. Please gIve your suggestion. Thank you.

Sure I am a feeder in NLUJ, don't bother taking my pictures. I am not trying to hide my identity, I will proudly post pictures of myself feeding dogs on public platforms :)

It's my moral and legal right and I will continue to do so and you can't stop the feeders because you have no basis to do so. My college has a bunch of entitled people I owe absolutely nothing to. No feeder is responsible for any of the conduct of dogs and you are free to establish otherwise if you can :)

All coaching centers are fraud. Only interested in making money.

Individual teachers like Rajneesh Singh (Do Zen) and Nishant Prakash Delhi could be preferred. Bahul good in Indore. Mrs Hema Raman in Chennai.

Best individual faculty should be chosen in every city, not profit making companies like career launcher or clat possible.

Somebody should stop NLU Delhi first to stop AILET and become part of CLAT Consortium.

Just for some money this law school forcing students to take one more test and paying money and wasting one precious day of time.

Wish some one filed PIL like Varun Bhagat to stop this selfish and unnecessary exam of NLU Delhi.

Somebody needs to show this thread to the managing partner from South Bombay. Does he want to continue to be associated with a coterie like this, and be seen as being a participant in this mis-management? No one who's from the team who oversees what's Said about the firm in social media, would have the guts to show this to the shroffs anyway.

Project infra- proj developmental work. Primarily work onnsectors such as power, roads, mining, oil and gas etc. Depending on the firm that you are looking, M and A in these sectors as well - in most firms, just DD. Some firms like SAM, KCO, CAM Mumbai, you'll do the entire deal, whereas in others, you'll just f-off after the DD.

Project finance- most boring templates based work. Just advising on borrowing for a Project or lending for a project. Your prior experience from RE will be very relevant (particularly if you understand how charges are created etc).

Just going to question the math. The 2L in salary arrears for 5 months, might work okay for about the 100 RPs and 100 PAs in the firm. That's a total of approx 4cr. Balance folks (SA arrears for 5 months- approx 1.25L, Associate arrears for approx 5 months, approx 1L). So even if you take 1.25L X 400 lawyers= that's 6cr at the best. Hence the total salary arrears bill cannot be higher than 10Cr. That also assumes that everyone gets a 10% increment, which might just not be the case and in some cases, let's say about 50-75 lawyers will not get an increment at all (either due to bad performance or having just joined the firm). That the shroffs, therefore, don't have 10 cr is the correct statement from a math perspective.

Just giving you the counter-perspective. If you are someone who's posting this in a public forum, you are disloyal and don't deserve to be in the firm anyway. Of course, what the shroffs would miss is that there's no reason for you to be loyal to a firm that's pathetically bad in so many ways and in particular talent/people management. I just said it's the counter-perspective. I didn't say it was right.

Thank you for sharing this. Things have gotten that bad is it? Atleast in the past, when they delayed and when they announced the increments, it usually came on the same day or worst case- on the day salary for the month was paid out. I know that these guys announced increments last week and so assuming if it hasn't been paid as yet, it didn't come with your salary. Real shame. I was reconsidering moving back to the firm and if things are this bad, a hello my ex-partner boss is not worth at all.

Judges in Bihar generally get 3BHK or 4BHK apartment. It depends upon the district you are posted in, however, the availability is scarce in almost all the districts. You may have to look for private accomodation, the rent of which shall be reimbursed upto the ceiling limit fixed by government. Similar is the case in Delhi. Availablity of accommodation for Judges is an issue in entire country.

That is only possible if there's literally round-the-clock reporting and monitoring mechanism. If I report a defamatory comment at 12 a.m. and the poor moderator only gets to see that report at 7 a.m., the damage has already been done by then and the intermediary will be held liable for having enabled that.

Hi,

In this thread I will pour out my thoughts (opinions) and experience (facts) of legal profession in General.

I am a 2020 grad from Tier -4/5 law school from a far flung no name Law school in a state. After my graduation, I immediately joined litigation. Needless to say, since our college was not so big, our only focus was Bank PO, SSC and other govt competitive exams. Me and my batch mates had no other plans. I tried a few exams then rested my pen. I joined litigation in 2021 under a senior lawyer in District court.

To my shock, juniors were not paid anything ANYWHERE in India regardless the forum, the senior advocates income and size of chamber. I continued to litigate as I had no other option. Meanwhile I came across few people from better Universities and they told me about Corporate Law Firms and how since I dont have any internships and because I am not from an NLU so I dont stand a chance at getting into them. Made me sad. I still message and reply to people working in law firm in hope of getting some guidance and break. But, I have dropped the hope.

Another issue with legal profession as also highlighted by CJI Sir recently is crazy work hours, be it inhouse, law firm or in litigation , litigation is the most toxic profession with crazy work hours. It really messes up family life. It sucks the soul out of your body and you really start to question your value as an individual and your reason to live. In other words, you hit existential crisis which often leads to undiagnosed high functioning depression.

Due to crazy work hours,
