Gone are the days when only academic programs were the only activities organized in colleges and all
students focused on that. With the changing trend we have noticed a major difference in the field of
academics too. Students don’t want to be bookworms; they look for other options that could help them
in the future. Besides, this in this high tech world, every student wants to acquire knowledge in every
field to stay updated. Co-circular activities play a vital role in the life of students.
We are committed for holistic development and nurturing of the students .They are exposed to various
cultural and other extracurricular activities which enables them to discover an area of interest out of
their academic arena. We have audio-visual rooms and a multipurpose hall for cultural and other extra
–curricular activities. We also celebrate annual day where students participate in various items like skit,
dance, mono-act etc.
JLU School of Law believes in the importance of building confidence in oneself, having a healthy
self-esteem with well-grounded values and skills as the base. All these put together play a vital role in
developing a child into a proactively responsible and contributive citizen. Academics are merely one
aspect of this growth. Given the right platform to display his/her skills gives an impetus and motivates
the child to work hard at academics too.
Cultural and extracurricular activities teach students how to work for a common goal and this ultimately
develops a sense of responsibility in them. It increases the level of confidence and also teaches them
how to co-operate and work with people in different conditions. They learn to face the challenges that
come in education and career.

Building a unique, recreational and interactive platform for the students is one of the major aspects
of a University life. Apart from academics, ample opportunities must be given to the students to
ensure their all round development. In contemporary times, the industry demands dynamic and
proactive individuals and co-curricular activities such as debates, drama, sports, etc. play a vital role
in inculcating values which are extremely helpful in their personal and professional growth.
Law impacts the society in a big way and is deeply embedded in our social world. The
pursuit of social change, therefore, involves an engagement with law. In India, the social
dimension of law becomes especially relevant considering the fact that legal services
remain largely inaccessible to the common man. During the past five decades, law and the
legal profession have undergone a metamorphosis, not just in India but the world over.
Both have matured as a natural response to the world becoming a global village. Today,
there are also new challenges and newer forms of competition. Those in the bar and the
bench are expected to perform their roles with greater ethics and more responsibility.

Bringing out viable solutions to contemporary problems through exhaustive discussions has been a very old practice throughout the globe. Learned men have always found deliberations to be an effective intellectual exercise that provides a platform for the exchange of ideas, thoughts, opinions and perspectives. An honest and a well moderated debate among individuals with keen insight and knowledge of the society is one of the primary avenues for prolific outcomes.
Further, the importance of such discussions in the area of law cannot be overemphasized. The dynamic nature of law and its close connection with other disciplines such as economics, polity, sociology, ethics, etc. behooves us to engage in well-directed argumentations to find solutions to various socio-legal problems.
With the aim of building a healthy intellectual atmosphere and to provide the students with an opportunity to express their ideas about various social issues and challenges, the JLU School of Law has constituted ‘Litigium’.
The Apostle is a recent initiative of JLU School of Law to highlight issues and influence policymakers to take action on legal, social, economical and civic problems.
The Apostle, which in broader sense means A Messenger, is a medium through which JLU School of Law aspires to achieve social ends. Living in a metro city isn’t as easy as it may sound. With ever increasing civic problems and issues that citizens have to deal with on everyday basis, there are some that remain unaddressed for days. Traffic on roads, damaged streets, illegal construction and water logging are some of the issues our students address in their letters. These letters and article also contribute to educating media about prevalent issues in the society. Main objective of this unique initiative is to foster social awareness in the society. Moreover; it also improves the composition skills of English Language among the students of Law.

JLU SCHOOL OF LAWCENTRES FOR RESEARCHAND DEVELOPMENT In the legal profession, it is extremely essential for an individual to keep pace with the rapidly changing trends of the society and industry. With the aim of promoting growth of intensive research and study in the booming areas of law, School of Law has established dedicated centres:
CENTRE FOR GOOD GOVERNANCE, LAW AND POLICY
Good governance is an ideal which is difficult to achieve in its totality; very few countries,
societies, or organizations have even come closer. However, to ensure sustainable human
development, actions must be taken to work towards this ideal. The aim of our study is to develop
an adequate and complete understanding of the interaction between levels of governance, shifts
in the power of political and judicial institutions. The goal of the research consists in rethinking
democracy, constitutional rights and rule of law across all relevant levels of governance. Our
objective is to study legal and regulatory instruments, principles and conflict rules through the
lens of substantive and procedural legitimacy and the vertical dimension of multilevel
governance is to understand better how they function and assess whether they are or can
become innovative instruments in the achievement of legitimate multilevel governance. Our aim
is to contribute to building knowledge in the field through publications of widespread
international and national recognition. Workshops and training sessions will be conducted by
eminent personalities.
CENTRE FOR INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION AND ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION (ADR)
The aim of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Centre is the advancement of research,
scholarship and education in the fields of negotiation, mediation and arbitration.
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is currently an area of substantial growing
importance in many legal jurisdictions. The use of arbitration is well established, but there
are a number of issues to be addressed in ensuring that the process is as efficient and
effective as it might be. Increase in the use of mediation is being driven by a variety of
factors, including the desire for quicker, more private and more cost-effective ways to
resolve civil disputes. This Centre is an opportunity for the students to step out of the
classroom and engage with the community. All new mediators will have the opportunity to
mediate Small Claims court disputes, Harassment Prevention Order requests, and ad hoc
dispute resolution cases. It is composed of staff as well as community members, including
professionals and students. This course on Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanism is
an attempt to embrace dispute resolution methods and techniques that act as a means for
incompatible parties to reach an agreement without resorting to litigation, which is a
lengthy and time consuming process.

CENTRE FOR COMPETITION AND INVESTMENT LAWS, POLICY AND RESEARCH
Competition law is a contemporary and relevant field of research which has been analyzed from both global and national perspectives. The study in Competition Law programme offers you the opportunity to study the application of competition law in relation to different business phenomenon, ranging from anti-competitive agreements and abusive dominance to mergers, acquisitions, amalgamations and takeovers. Competition law is an exciting and important area of law, particularly in the international sphere. Students will also have an opportunity to explore the interface between competition law and allied areas such as intellectual property rights and trade.
that their creative work will be protected and that they can benefit from their labor, they are more
likely to continue to produce things that create jobs, develop new technology, make processes
more efficient, and create beauty in the world around us. There are three main mechanisms for
protecting intellectual property: copyrights, patents and trademarks. Intellectual property
management encompasses creation, protection and exploitation of Intellectual Property Rights.
Patents play a critical role in research and development of intensive industries. Patent rights are
known to provide significant benefits as they can be sold or licensed and form foundation for
making, using and selling industry leading products, processes and services. In order to obtain
valid patent rights, however, basic knowledge of certain critical issues is considered essential
among stakeholders. We will be conducting extensive training programme, seminars, lectures by
eminent personalities, faculty development programmes, brain storming session etc. as a part of
this Centre. Through several global case studies, the course introduces some practical legal
concepts, pitfalls and compliances that are needed by today’s businesses to comply with
Competition Law, IPRs and their legal linkages. This advance course provides dual benefits of
learning Competition Law & IPRs challenges faced by Corporations when they expand in an
organic or non-organic manner into new territories, markets and products.
CENTRE FOR HUMAN RIGHTS AND GENDER JUSTICE
Gender-based violence is often a common element of conflict and authoritarian regimes. In
these contexts, impunity for violations against women is pervasive. At the same time,
women are often absent or underrepresented in efforts to address such abuse. Recent
developments in international law on gender-based violations and resolutions have
strengthened the international community’s commitment to combating these crimes.
However, despite these advances, there has been limited success in prosecuting crimes of
gender violence at the domestic or international level. Our research aims to provide new
insights into how the gender dynamics of conflict can be addressed by transitional justice.
For example, we have examined how sexual minorities are specifically targeted for human
rights violations by state actors and armed groups, and how often these victims are invisible
in transitional justice processes. The study will assess the benefits, risks, and limitations of
human rights based approaches (HBRAs) to development, which can be catalogued on the
basis of the institutional mechanisms they rely on: global compliance based on international
and regional treaties; the policies and programming of donors and executive agencies;
rights talk; and legal mobilization. As a part of their course students will be given
opportunity to participate in camps, workshops, training sessions and seminars etc.
CENTRE FOR BUSINESS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAWS
Intellectual property is the area of law that deals with protecting the rights of those who create
original works. It covers everything from original plays and novels to inventions and company
identification marks. The purpose of intellectual property laws is to encourage new technologies,
artistic expressions and inventions while promoting economic growt h. When individuals know
Infrastructure sector is a key driver for the Indian economy. The sector is highly responsible for
propelling India’s overall development and enjoys intense focus from Government for
initiating policies that would ensure time-bound creation of world class infrastructure in the
country. Infrastructure sector includes power, bridges, dams, roads and urban infrastructure
development. In August 2016, India jumped 19 places in World Bank's Logistics Performance
Index (LPI) 2016, to rank 35th amongst 160 countries. The Government of India has made a
record allocation Rs 221,246 crore (US$ 33.07 billion) for several infrastructure projects in Union
Budget 2016-17, which is expected to provide significant boost to Indian infrastructure sector.
Given the huge gap between potential and current air travel penetration in India, the
prospects and possibilities of growth of Indian aviation market are enormous. The course aims
at creating the awareness about Energy laws, Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act,
2016, The Electricity Act, 2003.This is an innovative and emerging area of research in the field
of law. Sufficient research and study in this area has been undertaken abroad but Jagran
Lakecity University, Bhopal is the first university in India to offer study in infrastructural laws.

more efficient, and create beauty in the world around us. There are three main mechanisms for
protecting intellectual property: copyrights, patents and trademarks. Intellectual property
management encompasses creation, protection and exploitation of Intellectual Property Rights.
Patents play a critical role in research and development of intensive industries. Patent rights are
known to provide significant benefits as they can be sold or licensed and form foundation for
making, using and selling industry leading products, processes and services. In order to obtain
valid patent rights, however, basic knowledge of certain critical issues is considered essential
among stakeholders. We will be conducting extensive training programme, seminars, lectures by
eminent personalities, faculty development programmes, brain storming session etc. as a part of
this Centre. Through several global case studies, the course introduces some practical legal
concepts, pitfalls and compliances that are needed by today’s businesses to comply with
Competition Law, IPRs and their legal linkages. This advance course provides dual benefits of
learning Competition Law & IPRs challenges faced by Corporations when they expand in an
organic or non-organic manner into new territories, markets and products.
CENTRE FOR HUMAN RIGHTS AND GENDER JUSTICE
Gender-based violence is often a common element of conflict and authoritarian regimes. In
these contexts, impunity for violations against women is pervasive. At the same time,
women are often absent or underrepresented in efforts to address such abuse. Recent
developments in international law on gender-based violations and resolutions have
strengthened the international community’s commitment to combating these crimes.
However, despite these advances, there has been limited success in prosecuting crimes of
gender violence at the domestic or international level. Our research aims to provide new
insights into how the gender dynamics of conflict can be addressed by transitional justice.
For example, we have examined how sexual minorities are specifically targeted for human
rights violations by state actors and armed groups, and how often these victims are invisible
in transitional justice processes. The study will assess the benefits, risks, and limitations of
human rights based approaches (HBRAs) to development, which can be catalogued on the
basis of the institutional mechanisms they rely on: global compliance based on international
and regional treaties; the policies and programming of donors and executive agencies;
rights talk; and legal mobilization. As a part of their course students will be given
opportunity to participate in camps, workshops, training sessions and seminars etc.
CENTRE FOR BUSINESS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAWS
Intellectual property is the area of law that deals with protecting the rights of those who create
original works. It covers everything from original plays and novels to inventions and company
identification marks. The purpose of intellectual property laws is to encourage new technologies,
artistic expressions and inventions while promoting economic growt h. When individuals know
Infrastructure sector is a key driver for the Indian economy. The sector is highly responsible for
propelling India’s overall development and enjoys intense focus from Government for
initiating policies that would ensure time-bound creation of world class infrastructure in the
country. Infrastructure sector includes power, bridges, dams, roads and urban infrastructure
development. In August 2016, India jumped 19 places in World Bank's Logistics Performance
Index (LPI) 2016, to rank 35th amongst 160 countries. The Government of India has made a
record allocation Rs 221,246 crore (US$ 33.07 billion) for several infrastructure projects in Union
Budget 2016-17, which is expected to provide significant boost to Indian infrastructure sector.
Given the huge gap between potential and current air travel penetration in India, the
prospects and possibilities of growth of Indian aviation market are enormous. The course aims
at creating the awareness about Energy laws, Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act,
2016, The Electricity Act, 2003.This is an innovative and emerging area of research in the field
of law. Sufficient research and study in this area has been undertaken abroad but Jagran
Lakecity University, Bhopal is the first university in India to offer study in infrastructural laws.

CENTRE FOR CRIMINOLOGY, VICTIMOLOGY AND COMPENSATORY JURISPRUDENCE
‘Victimology and compensatory jurisprudence’ is the social science of victims, of victimizations and of reaction to both. It comprises much more than the relationships between victims and offenders. Victimology deals with the individual suffering of victims. Victims have to undergo various aspects in criminal justice perspective, media, societal relations etc. It also includes study of victim of crime and everything that is concerned with such victim such as the right to Restitution, compensation, assistance and right to access to justice and fair treatment.
The criminal justice system in India is focused primarily on punishment without giving much attention to the suffering of victims of crime. This lacuna has been sorted out in plethora of cases where the apex court has awarded compensation to the victims. However, the problem related to victims still continues to rise.
In order to overcome these situations there is need to mobilize public opinion and sensitize criminal justice administrator to persuade the government and law makers to provide a comprehensive legal framework for assistance and compensatory relief to victims so as to protect their Human Rights.
This centre is established to undertake advanced study and research in the emerging areas of victimology and compensatory jurisprudence.

CENTRE FOR HEALTH AND MEDICINE LAWS
A healthy population can undoubtedly contribute to economic growth and development of a country. India has made considerable progress in many health indicators. Life expectancy at birth has increased, infant mortality and crude death rates have been greatly reduced, diseases such as small pox, polio and guinea worm have been eradicated, and leprosy has been nearly eliminated. All this is possible only because of the hard work of those involved in the medical sector.
Medical Profession is one of the oldest professions and most humanitarian one. Doctors in India are treated as second life savers after God. The standard of care from doctors and hospital authority is expected to be more in comparison with other cases of negligence. In today’s scenario importance of Health and Medical law cannot be denied. But good medical facility is still a dream for much of the population of India. Government of India is trying hard to provide Universal Health Coverage to its whole population and for the same Ayushman Bharat Mission has been launched.
There are various glaring problems which are daunting the medical sector like medical negligence, access to medical facility, access to generic medicine, insurance claim, etc. Here in Jagran Lakecity University, School of Law we have established a sole centre for Health and Medicine Law.

A splendid institution beyond imagination. Congratulations to Hari Mohan ji, staff and students!

MOOTCOURT
A method of teaching law and legal skills that requires students to analyze and argue both
sides of a hypothetical legal issue using procedures modeled after those employed in state
and federal appellate courts.
Moot court requirements at School of law, Jagran Lakecity University, Bhopal mandates that
students participate at least once in a moot court argument before receiving their law degree.
School of law schools offer right from the first year a series of moot court opportunities for
students of differing skill levels and legal interests. The activity is competitive by nature, and
students vie for honors within their school and in regional and national moot court
competitions featuring teams of students from several law schools. Moot Court helps
students learn to analyze legal issues; its larger purpose is to teach students the practical side
of practicing law. Typically, law students are given a detailed hypothetical fact scenario that
raises one or more legal issues. Often these fact patterns are based on real cases on appeal
to a state's highest court or the Supreme Court. Students choose or are assigned the position
on the issue to be argued. They then conduct legal research, finding statutes, regulations,
and case law that both support their position and detract from it. An important part of the
moot court process is to teach students to overcome legal authority (statutes, regulations,
and cases) that cuts against their position.

Further, students then draft appellate briefs, which are formal legal papers combining a recital of
the facts of the case with analysis and argument of the legal issues raised. As with real appellate
courts, moot courts generally dictate many specific requirements for a brief, including the size of
the paper, the width of the margins, and the maximum number of pages.
Once the briefs are written, students prepare for the second phase of moot court advocacy: oral
argument. Oral argument demands preparation, organization, and the ability to think quickly and
respond convincingly when questioned. The student appears before the panel of judges
(typically law professors, actual judges, or other students) and presents her or his position on the
legal issue. Each student has a time limit, normally five to ten minutes, to convince the panel. As
with real appellate courts, judges on the panel are free to interrupt the student advocate
frequently and at any time to ask questions about the facts of the case, legal authority for or
against the student's position, or the student's thoughts and opinions about the cases out-come.
Students learn to anticipate difficult questions about their legal position and respond
intelligently and persuasively. Following oral argument, the moot court panel often will review
the student's performance.
Moot court is modeled after the appellate procedure employed in state and federal courts. Moot
court is sometimes confused with mock trials, a similar learning method by which students
conduct a jury trial based on a hypothetical fact pattern. Where moot court emphasizes legal
research, analysis, writing, and oratory, mock trials emphasize jury persuasion techniques and a
thorough familiarity with the rules of evidence.
As per the mandate of the Rules of Legal Education 2008, School of Law has established a Legal Aid
Clinic that fulfills every expectation as required. The purpose behind having this Clinic is to familiarize
law students with the problems faced by those people who are either uninformed or ignorant about
their rights under the law and to teach them skills to help such people. Legal Aid Clinic is recognized
by the Legal Aid Services Authority, Bhopal. Dr. Yash Tiwari, Assistant Professor, is the faculty in
charge of the Legal Aid Clinic.
Legal Aid Clinic serves two-fold purpose, first is to provide free legal services to economically weaker
people and second, to direct the energies of the students in contributing to the society. The
members of the Legal Aid Clinic are engaged in spreading legal awareness in rural areas through
street plays as well as legal aid camps where they make the target population aware of different laws.
The senior faculty members have chalked out a thorough activity plan for Legal Aid Clinic which also
contains learning exposure through visiting Courts, Tribunals, Forums etc. Through Legal Aid Clinic,
School of Law Faculty and Students have channeled their knowledge and energy to work at the
grassroots.
Legal Aid Clinic believes in students becoming the torch bearers of its activities and promotes
initiatives taken by them. Students under the supervision of the faculty can assist the people seeking
legal advice. They may even bring the matter before the legal service authorities, if needed.

For many of our students, living with friends provides some of their happiest memories. It is part of the classic university experience – you meet people from diverse social and cultural backgrounds and learn to live independently, together.
Our on-campus accommodation can house 200 students and is divided into three separate blocks (1-Undergraduate Boys, 2-Postgraduate Boys, 3-Girls) and it is under constant surveillance of CCTV and block wardens.
