It has never been more imperative to be aware of one's rights and duties than in today's globalized world. With the increasing connectivity of the world, legal awareness and enforcement has gained paramount importance. Here at Dr. Ram Manohar Lohiya National Law University, we believe that education is the backbone of any healthy society, and imparting an extensive legal education is quintessential for progressive development of that society. In our opinion, legal education should not be merely academic, but holistic and integrated with practical experience that is necessary for any good lawyer. We aim not only to create good lawyers that aspire for perfection, but also good citizens. Our curriculum is thus, carefully designed to intellectually stimulate, inspire thought, and cultivate and foster skills that are necessary for any lawyer to flourish and shine. Therefore, I consider it a privilege to introduce the batch of 2011-16, which comprises of one hundred and fifty bright, well rounded, talented, skilled, and morally upright young law students, for whom achieving excellence is not only a duty to their conscience, but vital for their integrity. They have not only excelled academically but have also outshined themselves at various co-curricular and extra-curricular activities like moot courts, debates and the like. They have optimally utilized these crucial years to venture into the legal world as interns so as to develop their legal acumen, and acquire the proficiency and insight that only practical experience can give. I am sure that each and every one of them will be a valuable addition and an indispensable asset to the institution they become a part of.

Not only are these committees the best approach to encourage extracurricular activities, they are an excellent way to instil in the students the qualities of teamwork and leadership. The following are most active student committees of our University: Internship and Placement Committee Consisting of five members from each batch of the course, the internship and placement committee works under the able guidance of its faculty advisors to help the students achieve their true potential. Working while learning helps the students to discover their areas of interest, and ultimately, to decide the course they wish to pursue in law. Internships are thus, a valuable way to interact with the law while we are still studying. From the first year in college to the time a student passes out, the committee is primarily responsible for assisting and providing internships for students. Finally, it is through the placement committee that all arrangements of students with their prospective employers are engineered, be it PPO or Campus Recruitment. Dr. Manish Singh Chairperson, Internship & Placement Committee Faculty Advisors Dr. Aparna Singh Mr. Vikas Bhati Cultural Committee Mr. Mahendra Singh Paswan Mr. Manoj Kumar The Cultural Committee which also goes by the name Tehzeeb, captures the essence of culture of Lucknow which is one of the major cultural centres of the country. The committee has truly lived up to the city's repute for promotion of art and culture, time and again. Besides encouraging students to take part in cultural events all over the country, the committee organises a three day long cultural extravaganza 'Ohr' every year and it also credited for being the leaders in organising the University Annual fest 'Spoculit'. Debate and Discussion Committee The quintessential qualities in a good lawyer are clarity of thoughts and brevity of expression. While being a good speaker comes naturally to some, it takes practice for others. The DDC provides the platform for students to learn and improve the art of expressing oneself. The Committee is involved in debates in different formats and organises annual month long debating league 'Tark' and also the political debate 'Satta' which is wildly popular. It is also responsible for selecting debates and speakers to represent the 15 Campus Recruitment 2016 Dr. Ram Manohar Lohiya National Law University, Lucknow Journal Committee It is a very important part of legal education to think independently and to pen them down that others may have an insight to them. The Journal Committee's RMLNLU Journal prides itself with the collection of countries finest legal articles. The Committee is actively involved in collecting, editing and improving vast legal articles for the journal. Besides this, the committee organizes a number of events to cherish the literary and the poetic spirit, the most notable being one of the most awaited events on campus – the week long literary fest EOS. Legal Aid and Social Awareness Society The basic purpose of law is to improve the social order. But what is the use of law if the aggrieved are not aware of their rights or do not have the means to avail remedies? The Legal Aid Committee is living the dream of our mentor Dr. Ram Manohar Lohiya – working for the upliftment of the poor and downtrodden. Through camps and campaigns the committee helps and increases awareness of these people while it approaches leading lawyers to take up pro bono cases for those who seek such help. RTIs are filed by the committee as well for their relief and benefit. FLAGSHIP EVENTS Manthan Manthan is the flagship event organized by the Internship & Placement Committee annually, wherein leading experts and alumni in Corporate sector, Litigation, and Academia share their experience and views on different career prospects with the student, in order to help them choose a career and formulate their plans accordingly. The event serves as a forum wherein the Committee acts as a bridge between the student community and the prospective recruiters and thus helps the students in choosing a career option and also equips them for future challenges ahead.

The MCC conducts an annual intra moot court competition on the basis which various national and international moots are assigned to individuals and teams as per their performance. It is also the primary committee concerned through which the University hosts Moot Court Competitions of its own. Sports Committee Sports are synonymous with talent, discipline, determination and tireless pursuit towards excellence. Our University recognises the importance of these qualities in any form. The Sports Committee is tasked with the arduous responsibility of choosing and training the students to represent the college.

Acting as the collective voice of the students, this committee is instrumental in ensuring that the problems and expectations of the students are being met by the university. On the other hand, initiatives are taken up to increase the awareness of the students for a healthier lifestyle on campus. Every year, the Cultural Committee, Sports Committee, and the Journal Committee of the University come together to organize Spoculit, the four day intercollege fest which comprises of events that cater to a wide variety of interests.

From Donoghue v. Stevenson, right upto Vodafone v. Union of India, the RMLNLU Batch 2011-16, for the last five years of its rigorous legal training, has not lost sight of the aforesaid mantra. Recognising that hawklike-agility is the core skill that we need to inculcate in ourselves as aspiring lawyers, we still value the importance of “virtue”- hence, our persistence in strict adherence to rules and discipline. Trophies and mementos fall tremendously short of defining our quest for learning. Our national and global level Moot Court and oratorial achievements are not what we boast of; we usually do not talk out loud of our publications: what we really value is what we have learnt while attempting all of these, and the fact that we fared well in these attempts and stood out on the podium all these years, is of relatively less significance to us compared to the value that we assign to the skills, which we honed while engaging in such activities. We inculcated respect for the law while reading it. And throughout, we strove to develop an unparalleled sense of professionalism: our teachers guided us in this process, and so, while learning the law, we acted, not as students, rather as contract lawyers, or tax lawyers, or real estate lawyers, or corporate lawyers, while remaining, at our very core, as advocates of justice. We argued and argued, till we acquired the ability to unearth the multitudes of the layers of the law. And while we studied the laws in theory in full rigour, we didn't lose sight of them in practice. So, when our classes were dormant, we were nevertheless active, in law firms, courts of law, law publishing firms, LPOs, PSUs, and even in law libraries-wherever we scented the possibility of learning the law. More importantly, we also engaged ourselves in legal aid initiatives, consistent with our motto, learning important lessons in social responsibility. Batch 2011-2016 20 And, most importantly, we have stayed together. Our curiosity has been fuelled by our collective desire to excel, and in the days and months and years to come, we seek to substantiate this desire with tenacity of purpose and respect for equity and conscience. 21 Campus Recruitment 2016 Dr. Ram Manohar Lohiya National Law University, Lucknow ACHIEVEMENTS MOOTS 22 Winner and 2nd Best Advocate, 7th Annual NALSAR Justice B.
