Yesterday, the FIR was quashed after the intern reached a settlement with the lawyer:

Remember that a few years ago, another girl intern at another firm in Bengaluru committed SUICIDE after she complained of being repeatedly sexually harassed by the partners of the firm. It was widely reported in the national news and TV channels leaked an audio recording where the girl intern was being pressured to withdraw her complaint. But the case fizzled out and the accused lawyers are happily practising.
I think it's really sad that the cause of interns who are not from NLUs are not taken up by NLU students.
