The more serious question is the continuing exodus from Jindal of good alumni faculty. I blame the SJA more than the admin. The SJA is meant to be a watchdog and demand quality faculty. They do nothing of the sort .
The list of ex-NUJS faculty who left for other law schools are given below. A common feature is that they all joined during Left rule and left during the reign of the TMC govt, but the SJA refuses to address the elephant in the room. Even those who joined Jindal directly may have joined NUJS had there been a good VC and supportive government, as some of them have homes and families in Kolkata.
- Saurabh Bhattacharjee (NLSIU: joined under MPS and left under NKC)
- Prabhash Ranjan (NLUJ and SAU, now Jindal: joined under MPS and left under Bhat)
- Vishwas Devaiah (Jindal: joined under MPS and left under Bhat)
- Sudhir Krishnaswamy (Azim Premji, now NLSIU: joined under MPS and left under Bhat)
- Late Shamnad Basheer (became independent: joined under MPS and left under Bhat)
