If you ask such a blanket question, how can anyone guide you here?
Questions for each team will obviously differ.
I interned in march and i had my interview in july.
Also don't forget JHK loss earlier.
Did the saffron brotherhood do anything when serious allegations of financial skullduggery surfaced in MNLU Nagpur? Nothing was done at a "political level" when inquiries by judicial authorities confirmed scams at NLIU Bhopal.
And why should we expect things will change with regime exits. Scamming and killing off inquiries and follow up action is common to all political parties.
Btw do you think the rumble in Bihar will affect the dynamics in the EC at NUJS. Apparently OVN has publicly stated he prefers minimal EC involvement in univ affairs. So will it be divide and conquer by the OVN and King tag team?
I’m a recent law graduate (batch of 2020-2025 from a Non-NLU). I have two publications under consideration right now but no official writing experience.
How can I become a columnist or hold an editorial position in a newspaper? Any insights on this?
LI readers are clueless and the voting is totally biased.
Just saw his profile, quite an interesting journey..
Please just wear a normal black suit - not a trench coat. Wear a thermal under your shirt if you have to.
If they had a book, they’d be watering it, pruning it, and whispering sweet nothings to it. In our profession, a book isn’t leverage — it’s the last thing keeping you from being mistaken for support staff.
And talent? We have it in excess. We’re drowning in bright graduates — eager, obedient, hopeful. Half of them were elevated before they even learned how to fake cynicism properly.
But rainmakers? Actual generators of revenue and relevance? That’s where the tragedy lights come on. The S&R exits didn’t surprise anyone — they simply confirmed the obvious. Most who left weren’t making it rain. They weren’t even causing a light fog. Maybe Uday or Bhakta or Divyanshu had a passing shower in them.
The rest? Drought. Biblical drought.
In India, if you’re a law firm partner without a book, you are support staff. Replaceable. Even if you’re good at execution, the in-house conveyor belt will pick you up eventually. It’s like ageing — slow, predictable, and completely unavoidable.
And to the Sherlock who thinks I’ve revealed my identity — congratulations.
You solved a mystery no one was investigating, in a book no one was reading, for a prize no one was offering. Take a bow. Just don’t take any more time from people who actually have work.
Now smell the coffee ☕️ and get back to billing.
However, you won't understand.
Any leads regarding -
1. Renting Chambers - are there any clerks who are acting as brokers who can help find one; any other way to find a chamber; expected rent; any other information worth knowing.
2. Panel vacancies for Del HC - how does one find out about the vacancies, are they regularly posted - alternative ways of being on panel ( apart from the recommendations / references of course)
3. Any forums or portals or posts which share DHC (grape-wine) info. - that is to stay, stories, lores, gossips, Bar traditions et al.
Any other good to know, need to know info! TIA
Sidenote: Does one need to be an AOR to file cases on the Appellate side as well ?
Quite effective in tax and commercial matters
Senior advocate Mahesh Jethmalani, appearing for the children, said that under a matrimonial decree, Sunjay Kapur was responsible for funding his children’s education and expenses. He claimed that the estate of the children is currently under the control of Priya Kapur, and the fees for Samaira, who is studying in the US, have not been paid for two months.
However, senior advocate Rajiv Nayar, representing Priya Kapur, rejected the claim as baseless and fabricated. He maintained that Priya has consistently provided for the children and that all dues, including the university fees, have already been paid. Nayar also suggested that the issue was raised in court to attract media attention.
…
The children have previously questioned the authenticity of the will and, in court, referred to Priya Kapur as a “Cinderella stepmother," alleging that she prioritises her own interests over theirs. In response, Priya informed the court that the children have already received Rs 1,900 crore from the family trust.
