It gives me immense pleasure to introduce to you the Class of 2024. The Class of 2024 has
explored its potential by demonstrating extraordinary enthusiasm, dedication, and commitment.
During their stay at the University campus, beside being exposed to a rigorous curriculum in
law and allied disciplines, these students have also imbibed moral values and, therefore, look at
the socio-legal issues with a blend of pragmatic and ethical perspectives. Such a combination of
talent and ethics hardly goes unrewarded.

The students have spent their five years gaining practical experience through internships with
law firms, corporate institutions, reputed NGOs, public sector enterprises, and high-level
litigants. They have also brought laurels to the University through various activities including
conferences, moot courts, mediation competitions, sports, literary competitions and debates. I
am confident that the Class of 2024 will be fully capable of handling the difficulties and
complex professional duties that will arise in the future.

Each course carries a weightage of 5 credits. Semester Performance Index (SPI) weighs the
average performance in the semester, whereas the CPI weighs the same across the academic
sessions attended/passed so far. A student will be deemed to have completed the requirements
for graduation if he/she has:

a. passed all prescribed courses;

b. CPI > 5.0, a student having any pending F grades will not be allowed to graduate; and

 COMMITTEES
RMLNLU aims to prepare legal professionals equipped with the skills and vision required to succeed in the
field to sustainably benefit the society. The University has a dynamic student life, with the students playing an
important role as members of various committees and organisations. The committees comprise numerous
stakeholders, ranging from faculty heads, administrative staff, and student members, with each layer
contributing to attaining the committees’ objectives. The students and peers organise all the activities and
events leading to the overall development of students. Not only are these committees the best approach to
encourage extra-curricular activities, but they are also an excellent way to instil teamwork and leadership in the
students.

Internship and Placement Committee

The Internship and Placement Committee is a student-run body working under the guidance of its faculty
advisors to help students achieve their true potential. The Committee works towards building new relationships
and fostering the existing ones with the corporate world by understanding its changing requirements and
matching them with the diverse individual aspirations of the students. It is an integral part of the University’s
education system and contributes by organising various personality development and awareness programs. It
works tirelessly to secure internships and placements for the students, which form an intrinsic part of law school
education.

Journal Committee

It is an essential part of legal education to think independently and pen them down in a manner that others may
have an insight into them. The Editorial team at the Journal Committee publishes two journals: RMLNLU Law
Review, currently running in its 13th Volume, and RMLNLU Journal on Communication, Media, Entertainment
and Technology Law, presently running in its 9th Volume. The Committee also runs the RMLNLU Law Review
Blog to encourage discourse on contemporary legal issues. It also conducts its annual flagship event, RML
International Legal Essary Writing Competition (RILEC) and other conferences. The Committee also runs the
online college magazine - The Lohiyan Post and conducts the Annual Intra Literary Fest - EOS.

annual Intra Moot Court Competition for allocating National Moots to interested students. The International
Moots, on the other hand, are allotted through Open Challenge Rounds. It also conducts several practice moots
for the freshers’ batch. In addition, the Committee organises orientations and demonstrative workshops, which
assist the student body in getting accustomed to the nuances of mooting.

Debate and Discussion Committee

Progress in legal scholarship and policy academia necessitates the exchange of dialogue upheld with compelling
oratory. The Debate and Discussion Committee has been cultivating an active culture of dialogue and discourse
within the University since its establishment in 2008. Foremost events organised yearly by the Committee
include its flagship tournament - the RML Parliamentary Debate, a legal-themed niche - The Alternative Debate,
and the National Hindi Debate; witnessing quality participation of students, scholars, and professionals from
across the nation and abroad. It also organises year-long intra-discussion and debating competitions, workshops,
and meet-ups to provide a platform for college students to develop, hone and retain their understanding and
skills.

all, and for the organisation of Legal Aid Camps.

Inter College Sports events. Last year a contingent from our University was sent to NLIU for Inter College Sports
Fest ‘VIRUDHAKA’ and bagged the position of Second Runner Ups. Sports Committee organizes the Inter College
Annual Sports Fest - ‘AAVAHAN’, in which our University hosts various law schools and other universities from

DEBATING SOCIETY, RMLNLU (‘DEBSOC’)

The Debating Society of RMLNLU, working under the Debate and Discussion Committee,
works towards promoting and propagating the art of university-level parliamentary debating in
the college. In this academic year, offline debates started returning, and the Debating Society
has been responsible for training debaters, specifically from the first and second years, in
varied ways like motion deconstructions, matter-specific preparation, debate sessions, and
adjudication workshops. The Debating Society Core also inducted new members to increase
representation and accessibility in the RML debating fraternity. Throughout the year, RML
students have performed exceptionally well in the most prestigious international and national
debate competitions, like breaking as an adjudicator in the Worlds University Debating
Championship and Worlds School Debating Championship, winning Open Best Speaker at
DTUPD and Open Champion at Premchand PD, DTUPD, and ILSPD, winning Best
Adjudicator at RVDT Pre - ABP and winning best adjudicator at ILSPD. Students have also
been Core Adjudicators in a gamut of national tournaments throughout the year, in
competitions like the Derozio Memorial Debate, IIT Guwahati PD, and DNLUPD.

 PREVIOUS RECRUITERS

RMLNLU '24 PAGE 38

 RECRUITMENT PROCESS
The Recruitment Process is conducted by the Internship and Placement Committee of the University. It is
a holistic process that commences in July and aims to facilitate the reach between graduating students and
prospective recruiters. The recruitment process is governed by the Recruitment Process Rules, which
outline the duties and responsibilities of the Placement Cell, the students, and the Prospective Recruiters.
These rules expedite the procedure to ensure optimal flexibility for the students and the recruiters.

The recruiters are encouraged to conduct pre-placement talks highlighting crucial principle features of
their organisation, job profile, terms and conditions of employment, remuneration, and other relevant
information. The recruiters are urged to indicate their preferred dates for such talks to the Placement Cell
either by e-mail or telephonic communication a week prior to their arrival.

In furtherance of the process, the organisations are requested to register themselves with the Placement
Committee with their preferred dates in the final placement schedule by filling out the recruitment form.
The recruiters are at liberty to determine their eligibility criteria and the policy for the screening and
recruitment process. Organisations can also opt for telephonic interviews and interviews via
videoconferencing, and the Placement Committee shall facilitate their process as and when required. In
case the recruiters do not want to conduct a pre-interview screening, the CVs of the interested and eligible
students shall be forwarded to them before the final interview. The Placement Committee ensures that the
last recruitments are conducted fairly and transparently to maximise the interest of both the students and
the recruiters.

RMLNLU '24 PAGE 39

 Travel & Stay | Virtual Facilities
The Internship and Placement Committee can arrange Online Interactive Platforms for keeping the
process safe and sound. We can also arrange accommodation at the University Guest House, on
