During the first wave NLSIU took the lead and organised chartered flights for migrants. It was praised on Twitter by many celebrities and covered on many news channels (videos below). In the coming days you will see another great idea.

What about the NLSIU administration starting charity from home by being sensitive to the needs of the students and staff during these troubled times? Because as an affected stakeholder (student), I can totally get behind that idea!

Serving the Lord in humans is the highest form of worship.
-Swami Vivekananda

We, the LLM students of National Law University, Delhi and Nithi Manthan have launched the project 'Covify'. We plan to update the real-time verified data of resources for Covid patients and their families. The project website is live and can be accessed at https://covify.in

The process of verification and updating is going on. A cohort of several hundred students is working on it, albeit the data and area to be covered are too large. Wherefore, we need more volunteers. Please come forward and volunteer, or share this with your friends and colleagues who may like to volunteer. Even one verified source at right time has the potential to save a life.

Volunteers can register at:

Can you please exhibit some common minimum decency and not turn this into yet another d***-measuring contest between law schools? Honestly!

reply
Threads like this are responsible for the rise of the atrocious practice that unless you are making social media posts or pursuing media coverage, then you are not doing anything to help people.
...
reply
Why are only a few law schools like NLSIU and NALSAR helping out? More NLUs should join.

Who told you that others aren't working too? Not everyone likes to post their activities online. Not that I'm insinuating in any way that these law schools are doing this for any ulterior motive.
