Competition
Along with the symposium
we are also organizing national case comment writing competition;
the event is aimed at promoting the importance of the analysis of judgments.

CBI Court in Lucknow acquitted former Deputy Prime Minister LK Advani, former

Sahni V. Commissioner of Police & ors)
Protests against legislation or communal conflict?
India, as we know it
today, traces its foundation back to when the seeds of protest during our
freedom struggle were sown deep, to eventually flower into a democracy. What
must be kept in mind, however, is that the erstwhile mode and manner of dissent
against colonial rule cannot be equated with dissent in a self- ruled
democracy.
