KDR has to rein on the incompetent old faculty involved in political mastery creating toxic environment for young faculty and preventing promotion of new and competent ones. He has to recruit steadily but must maintain the quality and involve good internal faculty in administrative decisions like senior Prof. Dhandha, Prof. Kannan, Prof. Murali, among others. He relies on his old chaps who doesn't care about the institutional growth. To attract good faculty at par with how Sudhir in NLSIU is recruiting he also has to build infrastructure, but he failed. He can't even re-build/renovate the library which has cramped space, let alone building new hostels, recreational area.
NALSAR has lost its glory that it achieved since it's inception till Prof. Mustafa's tenure. KDR will keep entertaining judges (seemingly those who are in line to be CJI), to keep gaining judicial patronage, that's the best he is doing till now. Hats off to his own junior, Sudhir Krishnaswamy, who re-built NLSIU with the best faculty.
Why just NLUD? Why not check his record at NLUO? I remember Legally India doing a story of how SKDR did a cut-paste job at NLUO for the NAAC accreditation.
Have a plan B. If you are successful in evicting SKDR be ready for a clone or worse whatever the dressing - NLU/TLC alumni. Although almost all NLUs practically run on student fees, we are unlikely to be given a meaningful say in who actually gets appointed as VC and the everyday administration of univ, including faculty recruitment, which is basically a traffic of IoUs, favours and other "exchanges".
In recent years, VC evictions were successful only (I am specifically not getting into their replacements) when the VCs committed harakiri and/or students were able to access damning info that made the VC political and/or judicial liability.
Examples:
1. CNLU Patna - Students had enough of their evergreen VC. But he sought to preserve his influence and corrupt practices through a proxy. But PIB had become liability and CNLU students created enough noise for the political-judicial establishment to drop him. Ofc the "Empire" struck back.
2. WBNUJS - Although the TMC/state govt is the fav punching bag, PIB survived and thrived due to support from a powerful section of judiciary. These folks are apolitical in the sense that they are valued by all the rival politicos. But that's another story. Point is that the SJA despite damning inquiry reports could not stop EC from giving PIB an unanimous second term in 2016. But in 2018, the SJA had understood the game. The political-judicial establishment always needs a good driver for the gravy train. But when the gravy train faces real danger of derailment, the driver is expendable. Ofc, the SJA in 2019-20 lost the plot and therefore suffering the consequences.
3. NLIU and HNLU - Both had it coming for a long time. Students finally came together and cashed in on the harakiri committed by the VCs who had grown complacent.
4. RGNUL - Students were able to pile pressure but the crafty PJ found crucial support in your dear FM (then) and an extremely accommodating judiciary. PJ was stirred but not shaken. PJ knew his time was up, made a move to Sonipat and Tau had students for lunch subsequently.
5. NLU Assam - Teachers and students wanted VK gone but they had to wait till Tau made arrangements in MNLU Nagpur. But another VC (from Karnataka and a bhakt) lost his grip only after he "allegedly" flashed repeatedly leading to some sort of police complaint (which ended somewhere in a landfill) and the VC was given time and opportunity to resign and enjoy terminal benefits.
You should also consider the recent examples of failed "uprisings" in MNLU Nagpur, NLU Ranchi (even the earlier protests), NLUO (when the VC is a dear friend of well-respected CJ), NLU Vizag, HPNLU, NLUJ et al.
Lastly, do not get voluntarily hijacked and self-invite a smack down like SJA of WBNUJS.
Prof. Rao,
The anonymity here stems from a lack of response from the administration and the understandable fear of reprisal for exercising freedom of speech. We arrived at NALSAR with high hopes, drawn by the esteemed 'NALSAR' brand. We anticipated exceptional professors, and while there are indeed some outstanding ones, it's disheartening to witness the departure of many esteemed faculty members.
Our initial enthusiasm soon gave way to disappointment as we faced the reality that some core law subjects, such as contract law and family law, were being taught by professors specializing in criminal law. This not only creates discrepancies in our learning opportunities but also undermines NALSAR's reputation and our future prospects. We aren't demanding extraordinary quality; rather, we seek the basic standard of being taught by professors specializing in their respective subjects, with transparent appointment processes.
This situation is unjust not only to us but also to the professors themselves, as evidenced by their evident disappointment, as reflected in recent communications. As we contemplate the remainder of our four years here and consider the welfare of future batches, it's concerning to witness our senior peers already apprehensive about their upcoming years due to the departure of esteemed faculty members.
Moreover, the decision to conduct today’s demo classes online, when the university is set to reopen in a week, seems perplexing. Offline classes could potentially attract more participants, yet this opportunity appears overlooked.
In light of these concerns, we, as students, express our disappointment and urge the administration to respond. We advocate for being taught by subject-specialist professors appointed transparently, with student feedback mechanisms in place to ensure quality education and accountability.
Sincerely.
Bruh, just throw them a banana and they’ll go away, else call a professional monkey trapper who’ll take all of them away. What a big fuss y’all are making 😒
As per the Section :-
"A promissory note is an instrument in writing (not being a bank note or a currency note) containing an unconditional undertaking, signed by the maker, to pay a certain sum of money only to, or to the order of, a certain person, or to the bearer of the instrument"
If you look closely, all the ingredients of a promissory note are achieved in the instant case of Congress Guarantee Card and a legitimate holder of the same can bring Congress to court for non-fulfillment of the said note and initiate legal action constituting civil and criminal liability
▮▮▮ call LKS, Indus, DSK as T-1 for no good reason
I donot come from an NLU. Have decent Tier 1 and Tier 2 Internships.
Open to Disputes Resoulution/ Tax/ M&A PE/VC.
Reaching to people on LinkedIN will it help?
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
Well, I'm a BJP supporter, but wanted someone else to be handed over the Finance Ministry.
A change just for the sake of change would have been better, as the general public opinion is not very favourable about her work as Fin Min.
also, im from delhi so would i be able to get a hostel in nlud?
Almost all major global MNCs have a presence here or have their APAC corporate Headquarters in the city. Do you get to interact with global clients or colleagues as well.
Anyone in the world would love this city, unless of course, you like a city that has only North Indian cuisine or that speaks only one language- Hindi.
Nirmala again gets finance.
Dharmendra Pradhan gets education.
Low expectations of reforms now...
But law firms do tend to attract workaholics who only think about work and make it their identity. There are quite a few places like this.
Take a break, then try to find your next job. Reach out to people you know to get a sense of how the workplace is.
All I ask for is a 5 LPA job in, and I will work day and night for it if required. I will say goodbye to sleep. I am extremely desperate for employment right now and I don't know what to do.
I just want some money to pay my rent and send back home. Why is it too much to ask for. Are we still in a recession? Has AI started taking legal jobs too? Are there no capital markets in India anymore? Why? I've spent every ounce of my energy in the internships to show I'm valuable. Apart from internships, publications, what else do firms expect me to do man? ▮▮▮ . I'm sorry for this rant, but I'm at the verge of taking a loan to buy an auto. Speaking of which, I can't even even do that since I already have a loan LMAO🥳🥳🥳
Also, I had to ask about placements particularly for no other reason apart from the fact that while I do plan on going head-on into my LLM (wherever I end up going to) and doing these above things, I just want to have a decent enough backup through a placement via campus. In all honesty, anything that can net me a 50k in-hand monthly would be a good enough for me for the first half-year to an year after my LLM.
Thank you for the Trilegal bit too.
Cheers.
