NLUJ on a downward spiral? Spoken like a true troll. I'm from one of the other places that you mentioned and even I know that NLUJ has been doing a lot better ever since the new VC has taken charge, as compared to GNLU where students have achievements despite the leadership and not because of the institutional support.

By the way, you shouldn't be asking this stuff on Legally India. Please do your research, the sections of the Immigration Rules that the decisionmaker uses to evaluate your visa application (along with guidance) is literally available online. Considering you are asking on Legally India, you clearly need to be spoonfed, so here goes:

Immigration Rules, Appendix Student (see ST 12.3.): https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/appendix-student#content

Financial Requirements guidance: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/financial-evidence-for-student-and-child-student-route-applicants#content

What is effectively (in this context) a statutory 'explanatory notes' guide for UKVI caseworkers/decisionmakers for Appendix Student (covers Child Student as well, ignore those parts): https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/points-based-system-student-route/student-and-child-student-accessible#content

You are much better off looking at these verified sources of information than exposing yourself to the chance of potentially being mislead by trolls. The fact that you didn't/couldn't find/figure this out yourself should concern you far more, however. Spoonfeeding won't work forever.

Hi, why don’t you consider MBA? It opens a lot an options and there are several fields you can consider finance/marketing/HR/strategy/operations.

Also think about public policy.

I genuinely feel wlb takes a toss with a law firm life and there are several careers which pay more than law firms and have better wlb.

This is a worldwide phenomenon, as you saw with the Palestine protests at Ivy Leagues. The humanities has been captured by the left globally. Recently, Vivek Ramaswamy said "My message to Gen Z is this: You wanna be a rebel? Try showing up on your campus and calling yourself a conservative!"

NALSAR is just as ideological. Heres what I dont get- some of this stuff does sound like indoctrination and some of it sounds laughably biased. Why rant about it here? Ask questions in the classroom. Make the classroom better by challenging what youre reading and what professors are saying rather than whinging about having to read or learn with people you disagree with.

Have been told by CAM HR (Mumbai) that hirings mostly finish post Zero-Day. Only in rare circumstances, due to unforeseeable factors such as mass firings, will there be vacancies. At the end of the day, it all depends on whether the Partner in charge wants to hire you or not, as I have heard of Final Year students receiving PPOs at AZB Noida.

When he can define what women are and what rights they ought to have- when he actually involves women and people working for womens welfare in deciding PILs that seek to erase them as a category by judicial diktat then he can posture by making other judges see bollywood movies.

Have you ever heard of the 'block' function on email platforms? Has it ever been suggested to you, at some time or another in your life, by someone, that being entietled is a bad thing? Because if you didn't know about the first thing I mentioned, and the second has never been suggested to you, your biggest concern in life needs to be something much less significant than getting a job.

Someone did something similar with a PA I know. The kid had set up an automated system where the application email would hit the PA's inbox every morning at the exact same time. The applicant got blacklisted by the firm after the PA took this up with the HR.

For students: Partners rarely miss emails. Once you join a law firm set up, you will also rarely miss one. Therefore, if a partner has not responded to you, it's not because s/he missed your email, but because s/he is not interested. So, send an email once, and then stop. If you are really not satisfied with that - may be do up to two follow ups, with at least 10 days between each follow up. Anything else will likely only annoy the partner.

Another thing, please stop parallelly reaching out to multiple partners or senior resources. I have seen tons of kids do this. If you send me a CV, and when I forward that to the HR, they inform me that the HR already got this forwarded by another partner / resource, this looks bad on me. Frankly, this is the main reason I have stopped responding to emails from kids. I used to forward emails to HR previously to give kids a chance, but I don't want to do charity if that makes me look bad.

If you really want partners to help you, build a connection with them through previous internships / interactions / LinkedIn. However, while trying to build a relationship, do not have the veiled agenda of securing an internship. Such masquerading is easily visible and is disgusting.

In the last year, I have only helped kids who reached out to me genuinely for general career guidance.

Why assume im rich or hindu? India is not the modern day equivalent of apartheid south africa. India is a progressive socialist secular country and has been since its birth in 1947. You need to get out of your internet bubble whether other people are always evil and the state of the world is always bad.

I do condemn the lynching of muslims. Why would you assume I dont? I condemn it because it is religious fundamentalism the same way I condemn little girls being forced to marry much older men at the age of 9.

I'm not speaking for working class people- im listening to them. You will only listen to them if they agree with what you say and dismiss them as fools if they dont agree with you.

On the ad hominem: I'm a secularist and im left wing. Im not far right because I see all religion as harmful. You dont know me and your assumptions say more about what you think about the world than anything about me.

Here is what I found by looking up hindu in google news.

Do note: My position is not that these authors or news papers have done anything wrong. When Religion and orthodox religious groups do things that are terrible because of their religion- we dont actually do anything good by ignoring the religious motivations.

The "Far Right" as you could call them are harmful because they are orthodox hindus who want to hurt people because of their religious beliefs. That includes within their fold the far right in places like afghanistan and iran and iraq and algeria - in the muslim world. People who roam around the streets with swords in their hands looking for members of another group to attack and do so because their religion teaches them that apostates and non believers are less human are dangerous because of their religious beliefs.

Most indian muslims dont do that - not because islam is some religion of peace- no religion is a religion of peace. But because they are indians and they chose to live in a secular country when they or their ancestors had the choice. Some orthodox Indian muslims behave the way their religion commands. The KKK and westboro baptist church and people who bomb abortion clinics do so because of their christian religion. They are religious fundamentalists.

When you dont apply the same standard to islam because you think the world is divided by racial or by east/west power relations- you stand in the way of islamic reform and you stand in the way of more moderate and rational and progressive muslims from being able to lead their community out of this dark middle age thinking. You encourage the orthodoxy by claiming that religion has nothing to do with the actions motivated by that religion.

I had joined the GC Team of a T3 law firm in Delhi 5-6 months back after a year of working in NCLT litigation. Under it, I have been receiving only corporate advisory work and not being tasked on transactions.

Is it something to worry about in the overall scheme of the more specifically if I plan to switch in a year or so?

You don't need to be a former wrestler to comment on sports or sports rules. You just need to either follow the game or have an idea of rules and governance. As one of India's pre-eminent counsels, GShanks is eminently qualified to speak on the latter. He was also called in the capacity of being a public intellectual.

She has zero chances of winning, so I don't know why Salve took this case. When he loses, the opposition will continue to cry foul and say that Salve sabotaged the case, AMS shoudl have represented her etc.

From Wikipedia, I can see that the age of consent in India is 18, while in the US, Europe, South America and Australia it is between 14 and 16, depending from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. But is there any international law on this? The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child says anon under 18 is a child, so technically any country having an age of consent below 18 is breaking international law?

People are getting grossed out on the Iraqi proposal, but even 14 seems too young.
