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?
Is it a trend of sort?
Barring rare exceptions, for a young person in Bangalore or Kolkata, civil services is NOT the default career choice.
There was a post asking if any other NLU alumni in match famous NLSIU alumni. Watch out for the NLUD alumni in the UPSC. They are your future ambassadors, secretaries, and possibly future ministers after retirement.
2. Adding to the list... Akshat Baldwa (AIR 173) of NLSIU is also to be added to the list of law students successful at this. His achievement is of particular significance, because of his complete blindness and his having navigated, despite that, a system which is structurally ableist and hostile to the disabled.
NB: Not from NLSIU at all - indeed, I didn't even attend an NLU. Just a blind law student highlighting the journey of a fellow blind person whom I hugely admire.
3. Is it known if any of these persons is likely to join the foreign service? Akshat would sure as hell get in with 173 - or am I being too sure of all this? NB: Don't jump on me, my knowledge of UPSC is very limited.
