As long as the final product is as good or better than what you could do by yourself, then I see no reason any law firm would avoid AI. Do keep confidentiality in mind though; this particular task is okay, but anything with any confidential information can't be fed to a LLM (unless you host it yourself).

No. The purpose of assessment is to help people understand how good you're. Getting the work done by any means is a strategy that the associates can try out, not an intern. Even if you get AI to come up with a first cut, go through the judgements carefully and that cut to ensure that everything makes sense and no hallucination or lack of logic is evident.

1. Seemingly, the dates were declared only 12 days in advance. So I personally think that that's something valid to be a bit angry about, though the CJI's presence naturally means that some inconveniences have to be there.

2. As for the entire "graduates who have moved abroad" thing, in typical overseas destinations (like UK, U.S. etc), whatever they'd be doing (like an LLM or whatever) wouldn't start until August or September. This would mean that they wouldn't have even moved by this time, yet! Therefore, even within the "graduates who have moved abroad category", we have a further sub-category who might not be able to participate: those who've gone for summer vacation schemes. So unless somebody is trying to say that the NALSAR graduating cohort is largely comprised of students who obtained summer vacation schemes at London law firms...

This is what rich people imagine the problems of poor people are like. I went back to convo in a bus. There are trains. There are Tatkal tickets and relatives to stay with. No one is spending 70 k to go to convo on flight tickets and high end hotels. Why do y’all use the poor this way? It’s honestly so disgusting and disingenuous ?

This has nothing to do with poor students and EVERYTHING to do with being self centred and entitled. At least own your shit.

It’s not disrespectful to anyone to pick a day.

There is no reservation within that quota. That's the factual response to your original question. It is equivalent to a management quota wherein some students are being made to pay more in order to subsidise many others, including those with category reservations. If you can afford to connect with an NRI relative and have the money to pay, then go for it.

NRI/ NRI Sponsorship quota essentially refers to a quota for Non resident Indians.

And non resident indians are indian citizens in the first place, just they live abroad. The other quota is NRI Sponsorship where if you have a relative living abroad they can sponsor u in. Most nlus have this quota, NUJS being the highest ranked nlu that offers it. And no it has nothing do with lower or upper caste.

Certainly it could be considered as a means to get more money, but well ppl who have money are desperate enough for admission

For example, suppose my rank in the SC/ST/OBC list is good enough only for a low-ranked NLU like Shimla or Patna or Ranchi. Can I upgrade to NUJS under the NRI quota on the basis of caste reservation? As I see it, the term NRI quota is a misnomer because those being admitted are Indian residents. So thats why I am asking. If there is no caste sub-quota, then isn’t it unconstitutional, because you are basically extending the general category merit list seats and charging the extra students a higher fee. You are avoiding the social and constitutional imperative to reserve seats for marginalised communities.

How many people admitted are really NRIs? Aren’t they all upper castes?

I’m a student preparing for neet which seems very difficult to crack, randomly attempted clat 2025,23 paper with zero knowledge and got a pretty decent score in it . Now should i focus on CLAT 2026 . How’s the career graph like compared with doctors . Usually doctors have to study 7 years more (with 50-60 k salary) and in their 40’s usually earn 6-8 lakh ( atleast in my state )

jag is reorienting its customer segment, its going full electric and its production has stopped for 1.5 years as they retrofit their plant in the UK.

they want to produce less than 25k cars per year selling them at £100k or more, so it is a complete rebranding exercise, think of NLS reinveting itself as a medical college, that's the breadth of the change

😳😳😳😳😳

Bro, even Cyril Shroff doesn’t earn that kind of money! Tech jobs are just at another level compared to law jobs!!

Yes, that’s true. As the link says, Freshfields will sponsor your entire fees for an LLM at Kings College London in tech law, PLUS give you a living allowance of 20,000 pounds (bear in mind that student accommodation and food are subsidised, so it’s adequate). The firm sees it both as an incentive for the employee and as an investment for the firm, because after the LLM the lawyers will come back and help the firm grow its tech practice.

In comparison, Trilegal is not paying a single penny towards your education. All they are promising is that they will hold your place in the firm and not terminate your employment.

You guys are so gullible to fall for such PR.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hope this is helpful as an indication.

Can current or former students of NALSAR, GNLU, HNLU help me out.

Our college is conducting a international law seminar, I wanted to know who teaches International law or allied subjects in these Universities.

We want to send them an invitation email. I checked the website but it doesn't mention the current teachers.

Hey senior, I'm thinking of joining NLUO in vacancies this year if I get it. Have there been any changes since you last posted this comment and would you be able to sum up your experience at NLUO so far (assuming you're a student there)? It would be really helpful since I'll be a first gen lawyer and I want to make sure I don't regret my decision for the next 5 years.

Yes. You still have it in you. First and foremost, create a strong foundation on Companies Act, Contract Act, Transfer of Property Act, Specific Relief Act, Sales and Goods Act, FEMA (if possible). Various kinds of agreements dealt in business transactions (You do not have to go through the nitty gritty of those, just basic understanding as to what they do and how they do is sufficient enough).

This is going to take you some time.

Try applying for internships at boutique firms. Do not apply at top tier law firms - it would be a waste move, you won't stand a chance to get that micro second attention of the HRs.

Boutique firms would be happy to test your knowledge. Be ready with your basics. You would get through with ease. Gain as much hands-on experience as possible and if possible get a call-back internship from them. If they like your work, ask them at the end if a job prospect exists. Do this with multiple firms. Somewhere or another you might get through.

Do not think that the pay would be as good as you are expecting to be. Those pay are only limited to top tier firms. For now baby steps. Pay won't be that good and long working hours can be expected. Gain experience for a year or so and then you can easily make a move to the top law firms.

The process I just said won't be easy at all. So all the best.

Anyone saying NO here are kids themselves in their initial years of college life. Don't take them seriously. Life will give you opportunities. It's not unforgiving all the time.

Cheers!

In any case, NLUO is talking in terms of facts which can be checked on the website with credibility. It's better to focus to talk shit only when you can substantiate things which you are mentioning about your so called HNLU then going to have a bogus attempt to fight back without any credibility of your own data.

Thanks a lot to everyone but should i consider MnluM too? I got NLUO in counseling hnlu has vacancy but everyone is saying that NLUO in 5 yrs time will do better this year they placed 50 students including 17 in t1 firms and on the other hand MnluM has 27 placements..(i counted manually on their linkedin page) and only 3-4 were t1 firms... Hnlu I'm not to sure about i have my frnds there, they say that day zero is irregular ppos r good tho but admin is shit and naya raipur is hell

There are. Also note law firms hiring is unfair - unfair because it favors the privileged. It is not caste based. Even the SC/STs who are economically privileged get this benefit. I'm at a Tier 1 NLU where one ST female student (won't give any other detail) who is very rich (on a sidenote, she still eats up slots of economically underprivileged STs in Govt scholarship too without any shame) got a PPO because one of the top partners of a T2 firm is her family friend.

This is just one is example. Atleast from my T1 NLU bahujans are increasingly getting into T1 firms - some on merit some due to privilege - just like UCs.

If this were true, then CVs would not have to be submitted at the time of listing your preferences of judges but instead only after you are offered an interview on the basis of rank. Your rank will ensure you are considered for an interview but you'll actually receive the call based on a holistic review. The judicial office interviews are taken by the judges themselves and interviewing everyone on a rank list without consideration as to whether they would likely want to work with them at all is what doesn't make sense to describe as non-transparent. As for influences/referrals, every judge can pick two people without giving the exam at all. If anyone had those level of connections, why would they give this exam to begin with?

Well, that’s one version of events — and a rather lazy one at that. Yes, Raunaq has moved on. But to reduce the story of the litigation team to a list of exits is both selective and intellectually dishonest. Like any meritocratic institution, this team has seen movement — some have left, many have stayed, and others have risen. Raunaq’s trajectory, in fact, is a testament to what high performance here can achieve. Meanwhile, Abhishek and Shehzad continue to build from within, and the firm has expanded the partnership with new talent while actively backing alumni it still sees value in.

Take Samiksha: now an independent counsel, exceptional at what she does, and routinely brought back into major matters. That doesn’t happen in a team that’s “collapsing.”

So yes — people have exited. Some were asked to. Not quietly, and not without reason. This wasn’t about favouritism or cabals. It was about performance — or, more precisely, its absence. And now, some of those voices, curiously loud from the sidelines, are attempting to rewrite history as tragedy.

Let’s be clear: they weren’t pushed out by a conspiracy. They were outpaced — by people who were simply better.

This team isn’t for everyone. It demands a standard. And that, more than anything, is what some couldn’t survive…
