About the Blog
The CLIS Blog is a blog established under the aegis of Centre for Litigation Studies, a student-run body at the National Law University, Jodhpur. The body is independently formed by some litigation enthusiasts of NLU, Jodhpur to promote and encourage litigation as a career option among the students.
The centre is aimed at organising lectures and other activities with a special focus on the practical understanding of procedural laws. One of the major projects we undertake is “The Intra-University Public Interest Litigation Filing Competition”, which is organised annually in a bid to make the students familiar with the filing of a PIL.
