Why this matters more than it sounds
A student can read a landmark judgment. It is a different thing entirely to stand up and argue a problem before the kind of judge who writes them, to be questioned by that judge, and to hear afterwards how they actually reason. Most law students never get that until years into practice, if at all. At Parul University it happens while you are still a student, and it changes how you understand the law, because you have seen it thought through in person, not just printed on a page.
Who has taught and mentored students here
Across its flagship legal conclave and its PU Talks, Parul Institute of Law has brought the senior judiciary and bar into direct contact with students. Among them:
- Hon’ble Mr. Justice N. Kotiswar Singh Judge, Supreme Court of India, who told students to keep the dignity of the individual at the centre of their work
- Hon’ble Mr. Justice Vipul M. Pancholi Judge, Supreme Court of India, on the journey of the young advocate
- Hon’ble Mr. Justice Soumen Sen Chief Justice, High Court of Kerala, on the Constitution as a growing tree
- Hon’ble Mr. Justice Sourendra Pandey Judge, Patna High Court, on the Constitution as a promise to the people
- Hon’ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Former Judge, Supreme Court of India and Honorary Professor at Parul University
- Shri Gaurav Bhatia Senior Advocate, Supreme Court of India, on the living Constitution and a life in litigation
- Ms. Mahalakshmi Pavani Senior Advocate, Supreme Court of India, on women and the Constitution
These are not distant names in a prospectus. They have stood before Parul University students, taken their questions, and answered them. That is the difference between studying law near the profession and studying it inside it. Samvidhan Pe Charcha 4.0 organised and attended by these guests.
What students take from it
The lessons these mentors leave are remarkably consistent, and they are the kind a student remembers. Do not chase money in your early years; keep hope if the first placements do not come. Ask the strongest argument against your own case. The clearest argument is usually the strongest. Protection cannot become another name for exclusion. Keep the dignity of the individual at the centre of everything you do. A student who absorbs those lessons from the people who live them is better prepared for practice than one who only read them. That is the underlying promise of a legal education at Parul University: you learn the law from the people who make it.
