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.

One of the first things I learned as a qualified lawyer is that it is we who are responsible for putting together the laws on which we advise our clients. The internet is your best friend so putting together all amendments, circulars, and notifications would be the first step of your research, following which you actually read the law and give advice.
The state, unfortunately, has a monopoly on lawmaking and it does not have any incentive to compile every law in a systematic manner unless it erodes faith and trust in a major manner in our government. It is the same reason why the SEBI website is all decked up with regulations amended on a weekly to monthly basis and you can't find a single consolidated set of rules issued by a state under the Mental Healthcare Act, 2017 (based on actual experience).
