Arguendo
In India, Law has
always been regarded as a subject which drags you more into books. But, after
the introduction of five year law courses this stream of education has taken a
professional shift. The new curriculum has brought new innovations where law
can be pursued within the traditional discipline and even beyond that. The
experiments in the form of interdisciplinary law courses and recently, the
introduction of legal studies by CBSE in the intermediate level have welcomed
such products.
Law is equipped with
co-curricular activities in which mooting is at the first place. Information
about Moot Court competitions is available at different websites like Students
at Law(http://studentatlaw.in/
), Advocate Khoj ( http://www.advocatekhoj.com/
), Law Mantra (http://lawmantra.org/ ) and
Lawctopus (http://www.lawctopus.com/
) . News about the happenings in the legal and the extra-legal world are
available at websites like Live Law (http://www.livelaw.in/
), Legally India (http://www.legallyindia.com/
), Bar and Bench (http://www.barandbench.com/
). Other activities which are a part of the Law School are MUNs, Parliamentary
debates and the very recent Mock Parliaments and MUNs. Updates on these are also
available on the mentioned websites.
Depicting the biased
nature of the author here, I hereby return back to my story. When suddenly one
day I navigated through the webpages of The Knowledge Steez (http://knowledgesteez.wordpress.com/
), I found information regarding ‘Call for Papers’, Internships, workshops and
Essay writing Competitions. After
several enquiries, I eventually landed up finding out what these things
actually meant and what ‘The Knowledge Steez’ actually was. In the whole course
of navigation, I came across websites like Conference Alert (http://conferencealerts.com/) and The Social Science Informer (http://thesocialscienceinformer.blogspot.com/). Information on Legal Internships is also
available on Click Internship (http://clickinternship.wordpress.com/). Legal Trigger is again a player in the
league(www.legaltrigger.com
).
Moreover, the solutions
of these websites are available at Facebook groups like Law Students in India (https://www.facebook.com/groups/lawstudentsofindia/) and Legal Point (https://www.facebook.com/groups/legalpoint/
). For the Sake of Argument (http://sbfsa.blogspot.in/
) is also a takeoff. These are a few; and there are many more.
