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.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
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.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
The criterion is
1. 10 years experience as Professor of Law in a university system or a distinguished jurist not below the rank of a District Judge or an Administrator not below the rank of Secretary to Government of India.
2. Not above the age of 70 years.
Thus, it could theoretically be one of the NSLIU alumni who are HC judges or profs abroad.

But I also think that the appointment is going to be a political one as the Search committee is filled with bureaucrats and such appointments in places like Bihar happen after a hefty bribe.

Also, the assumption that only a District Judge can be appointed with political connections and not a secretary to the govt of India and a Professor is quite bizarre lol.
Why would anyone like to come to a remote and desolate place like NLIU, with is on a decline and marred with various scandals? (Fake Degree, Socio Prof Harassment to name a few)
She can't extend her term as the NLUJ act was amended in 2022 to include a 2 term limit on VCs tenure.
Also, highly unlikely that Faizan Mustafa will apply for the same.
You can check her CV here: http://www.nlujodhpur.ac.in/faculty_profile/profile212.pdf
For NLIU we could have Shashikala Guprur from Symbi.
