Modi ji and CJI meeting over a private puja and making sure it is caught on camera and reaches the media was clearly a signal (the media coverage was avoidable to say the least, none of them needed it):

If you dont know why this is a big deal, judges are supposed to stay away from any association with the executive, and DYC is known to be a true blue liberal so it baffled everyone

Questions being

There are 3 relevant questions

1. What was the context, i.e. what triggered/precipitated this signal

2. What was the intended message

3. And for whom it was meant

What are your best guesses?

Going by the body language in the published video... I don't think CJI invited the PM; it was more of a self-invitation, and filming it was surely MODI's idea, which I don't think CJI would even be aware of. MODI achieved what he wanted to do to cast the doubt on the judiciary.

Yes to all 3 for NLS. Law, Poverty and Development course, for instance, starts with a critique of Marx by Hernando de Soto, a Peruvian economist. It also had readings from Amitabh Kant and many on the economic right as well. For a left oriented course, it's kind of impressive.

Why can't NLUs be inclusive? Every other university is. Why do you need to get them involved in the main politics of the university ? Just tell them to choose a CR, or two, And that CR becomes a honorary member of the body. They just represent the LLM batch. They just sit in meetings to be informed that so & so events are taking place in the university, or these are the problems that need to be addressed. Moreover, hear their problems, their worries. Just cause they aren't UG kids anymore doesn't mean they wouldn't have their own grievances against the administration. Also what's the role of the SBC ? To protect every students right.. Are they not students ? Are the also not living far away from their families ? Don't they get a voice to be heard ? Also cut down on the elitism, these same LLMs may have been part of their SBCs, the may also have immense experience on how to handle certain things, learn from them, take their advice. It's only in NLUs which has this divide & rule policy created by students. In the end, the administration wins !

Why not I give you a better idea, that I gave a years ago, and still was shot down by the stupid UG kids cause "we alumni, they not alumni. Elitism. Entitled. blah blah blah..." Keep the core student body, especially the major post for LLB students since they have to remain longer in the university. Whereas, provide a honorary post to the masters student, and an advisory post to the PhDs, if they want. Just include one or two representatives from the batch. Simple. Why do you need to have elections for them ? Why do you need them to participate? Just have their CR be the ex-officio honorary member of the body. They represent their batch, that's it. What's happening in campus is relayed to them, and if they're facing any problems that can also be addressed by the body. Simple as that.

I'm so glad that my life is so much better studying in faculty of law. I don't have to pay an exorbitant amount of money, classes are only for a few hours, can practice in any court almost every single day, don't have to wait for vacations, the study material is provided, don't have to rely on professors with zero experience, don't have to get involved in all this BS politics, can easily hang out with the masters and PhD students without any remorse, can sit & learn from all depts in DU, plus will probably get a better option than being a corp slave. And my degree is from a central university. Lol.

Lol. How long did it take for you to realise that NLUs are nothing but glorified state universities? Imagine paying lakhs to be drowned by debt and then forced to be a corporate paper pusher just to repay that debt and still be treated as a nobody in the real legal world of litigators and judges. Cry me a river

how good is it to join a resolution professional profile in a known ARC NBFC?

whether Working in that profile will provide me with good lateral opportunities? in law firms or companies?

can I shift from there to IBC and commercial matters like banking finance or general corp of T1 law firm

I am from one of the top NLUs. I did an LLM from KCL, specialising in IP and IT law, and returned to India. I chose to do the LLM right after graduation, for various reasons: in campus placements I only got offers in corp law (which I do not enjoy), I wanted to go for higher studies, I wanted to study in London, and I had the financial resources to pay.

I would say that my degree helped me a lot early in my career. However, after a certain stage, your degrees don’t matter. What matters is your work ex and your ability to work hard, use your wits, network well etc. So you will see some people with just an LLB from Symbiosis or GLC doing better than even NLU-Ivy League grads.

Today, I am doing well in my career, but my degree doesn’t matter any more, only my experience does. But I’m still glad I went for it and would advise the same to anyone: also look at UCL, LSE, SOAS, QM, Warwick, Edinburgh, Nottingham and Leeds.

However, if you are struggling financially and need a quick ROI, you should probably not go for higher studies. You could also consider an MBA in India with high ROI, if you have an aptitude for maths. Good luck!

1. depends on what you want to do after LLM.

2. LLM will do nothing to get you a legal job in the UK, unless you have previous work exp in India or other jurisdictions and you already have secured some kind of work placement thing beforehand, less than 0.5% LLM students get job in the uk legal sector post llm.

3. again, what do you want to do in India?

4. check out their website for tuition. food and acco will cost £1.2k pm, so about £15k pa (does not include travel etc.)

Hey pokie pps out there, I've a doubt.

That, if I text someone on LinkedIn, who have done internship in "X" firm. Asking about how did you applied and the procedure.

Do they mind it? if I ask them to handover me the email address for application, is it odd? Or awkward?

I am a law student in a newly established NLU. If I am bright enough and have the right connections I'll be able to get into a tier 1 law firm. But folks there will mostly be from tier 1 NLUs. Will I have to face discrimination at the hands of my employers and colleagues due to the fact that I don't come from a tier 1 NLU?

ucl is unliley to consider unless you get 65%, however you can mention that you have topped your cohort and spin a good story in sop

durham will take you, edinburgh most likely will also take you

apply to qmul + soas for back up (they will take anyone above 60%) if you want to stay in london

This is the problem. Undeserving candidates like you act so desperate and act like Tier 1 jobs are some sacred thing and Tier 1 partners are gods.

Deserving candidates who actually work these jobs for more than a month know how shitty it can be, but because desperate folks like you exist the partners always think they are gods and that we are disposable.

Then when we leave they struggle to replace us and put some small town hick like you at the job, you fail miserably, then they hike the pay to get back deserving candidates, and the cycle of misery repeats.

Try going to any of the computer repair shops at Nehru Place, Delhi. They will also arrange for pickup and drop from your place, at a nominal cost. My Macbook Air of five years broke down last year and I got it done for 1/3rd of the price that Apple charges, and it's still in fine condition.

ICL from my experience rejects you within a week (honestly a good thing) and NLSBLR depending on the examinations in NLS and other variables turns around fairly quickly, not more than a month, however, they love giving suggestions, so the entire process could span a couple months.

Hello everyone,

I'm writing this opinion just to get justification, whether my decision is correct...

So, I'm a 3rd Year student at a mid tier NLU. And till now I've done 2 boutique law firm internships and done 8 paper presentations, along with some publications here n there, and some participations in Moots and ADRs conducted by Tier 1 law firms and NLUs. So, in toto I've a very poor CV.

I'm mailing 120 firms, every month for internship. But only 5 replies out of which 4 rejects.

Basically, I'm so much done with all of it. I have 0 connections.

There's a twist, that Judicial services is my passion and I wann do that only at the end of the day. But, the peer pressure at law school is making me to intern.

Whenever internship break comes, on the back of mind, I always have this idea that I should prepare in these "holidays" by going to home.

All of this is so stressful. What to do, I'm so confused.

Bcz, sometimes, I feel that I wouldn't be able to survive in Law firms. If this is the case with me, then why should I even go for it, and when I don't wann go to that path, why to even intern there.

Am I going right way? Is this how I should approach?

I'll be really grateful, if you can help me out.
