What's more, the building materials and plasters are already falling, it has ONLY one entry exist with zero fire extinguishers in it. When it rains heavily you can feel minor electric shock in switches.
Wifi doesn't work here, the locality of the university is such that even data doesn't work
And to make matters worse, you raise one voice against the admin and they'll remove you from hostels or put disciplinary actions against you.

Clear signs of anti-immigrant sentiment. For us ,the important questions to see are:
1. Whether this is restricted to Islamic countries or is expanded to cover India too.
2. Whether the US, UK, Aus etc will follow with struct rules. Settling abroad will become very hard then

You gotta wonder about Mumbai then. Is it worth spending so much money and living there?

Just one thing: building professional connections (especially for a non-nepo kid) has to be an ongoing process. Keep attending alumni meets of your UK university, various industry events, various social events etc. You will have to hustle a lot.
Coming to KCL specifically, yeah sure it’s good for Corp law, so go ahead if money is no problem. LSE, UCL, Warwick… apply everywhere, yaar.
they will play to your strengths in corp law
Also we started with law firms and suddenly you had to run to the SC.
No one pays good in tax these days, that practice is almost dead.
Eventually, government will go towards the negotiations mutual ones where department and clients would want to settle the cases.
Lower level litigation would be non-existent
BIG BIG BIG news for the following reasons:
- The culture of seniority in India has meant that Kapil Sibal has so far monopolised all the time in the SC. Geeta Luthra, although a very respected lawyer, has unfortunately been pushed to the sidelines and just been given a few minutes to speak. Karuna Nundy, who is representing a second set of protesting doctors, hardly got any time at all. Meanwhile, Tushar Mehta was as good as silent. Now someone of equal stature as Sibal, who takes no crap from anyone, just entered the ring! 💪💪💪 Literally Peter Pettigrew meets Minerva McGonagall!! 🧙🪄
- The protesting doctors were asked to resume work by DYC but haven’t done so. Now if DYC wants to punish them for contempt, he will have to contend with Indira first … and at a time when she has just written an oped in the Indian Express blasting him for meeting Modi. 🤣🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈🍿🍿🍿

- The one opposing lawyer who did give it to Sibal was Phiroze Edulji, who pointed out a big flaw in the investigation that even Tushar Mehta had missed. It was partly on the basis of this flaw that two big arrests were made yesterday. Now you will have Indira-Phiroze versus Sibal-Menaka!
- Finally, Indira’s involvement effectively splits the left. There is clearly a principled left (based in Bengal) that is opposed to Mamata and an opportunistic left (based in Lutyens Delhi) that is working with her. The latter side is fast losing credibility.
But I wouldn't recommend RAship. It's so exploitative, and often unpaid.
AZB, Noida - 0
Karanjawala & Company - 5k
If you're not paying rent, and have minimal responsibilities, I would say you should invest ~75k at the very least.
