We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.

Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
You cannot get much with a student strength of 500 students
It is like creating an elitist and downsizing the other better law college as well.
Just the hullaballo of TAG name of IITA has manipulated the image of engineers in the society. This generalisation of a engineer from IIT is always better than any other engineer from any other college has created more ruins than the benefit of creating this "IIT" Image. Many people don't get the equal and similar opportunities as AN IITIAN would have.
Even in law firms the disparaging and differential treatment a Law student from NLU and non-NLU receive is so demeaning and ridiculous. Right from every stage of your career. Yes, their are few good humans who comes from this background who knows the value of merit and have nopreconceived notions. But mostly even high up the ladder have been manipulated to think the other way.
So I think it's time we get away with such TAGS. The tags of giving someone additional importance other than what they inherently carry.
IIM CAT candidates: 244,000. Total IIMs: 20
CLAT: 60,000. Total NLUs: 23
CLAT has to reach at least 75% of the IIM CAT numbers to be taken seriously by the public.
anyone with normal IQ can learn what happens when a pet dog bites and kills a neighbor.
Yours and comment 9 have just turned this thread about a trivial topic like popularity of institutions into a conflict between professions. Perhaps if you have participated in some debates and alike then you would have realized what and what not to say in a public forum dedicated to towards the profession law. But don't worry , law education is not that rigid, apply for a 3 yr course of LLB and you may learn something worthy of interest.
Engineering will propel us towards a bright future, but it is law that will help us maintain it.

1. NLSIU has the prestige and pay scale of a tier 2 IIT like Madras, Kharagpur and Kanpur
2. NALSAR has the prestige and pay scale of a tier 3 IIT like Guwahati and Hyderabad
3. NLUD has the prestige and pay scale of a tier 4 IIT like Ranchi, Mandi, Bhubaneshwar and all the rest.
I can't see NLSIU ever overtaking IIT Delhi and Bombay, so the mission of NALSAR and NLUD has to be to reach the prestige and pay scale of IIT Madras, Kharagpur and Kanpur. In terms of pay scale, they are probably already there, but the prestige factor is a bit low as they are younger to NLSIU.
(leaving aside the puerile argument about "prestige" and NLUs, which is clearly defined by who you talk to)
1. NLSIU ---> IIM Bengaluru Faculty of Law
2 NALSAR ----> IIT Hyderabad Faculty of Law
3. NUJS ----> IIM Kolkata Faculty of Law
4. NLUD ----> IIT Delhi Faculty of Law
5. NLUJ --- >IIT Jodhpur Faculty of Law
6. NLIU --> Nothing in Bhopal, so status quo
7. GNLU --> IIT Gandhinagar Faculty of Law
8. MNLU - M ---> IIT Mumbai Faculty of Law
9. RMLNLU ---> IIM Lucknow Faculty of Law
10. RGNUL ----> Nothing in Patiala, so status quo
11. HNLU ---> IIM Raipur Faculty of Law
12. NLUO --- > IIM Cuttack Faculty of Law
etc etc etc
1. IIT
2.AIIMS
3. IIM
4. NLU
5. NIT
6. NID
7. NIFT
So NLUs are not doing that badly.
Just shows the arrogance of the NLU community that this comment is marked trollish.
Try asking a random neighbour whether they have heard of NID or NLSIU, or the Delhi SPA or NLSIU, and you will get your answer.
Coming from someone who appeared for the exams of all three, the NID DAT, JEE-II (Architecture) and CLAT.
Litigation lawyers are hired reluctantly in bad situations by the majority. And law firms work for companies - and thus don't generally serve the middle class which reveres the IITs. That's definitely a factor.
