We are thrilled to invite your institution to participate in the 5th Gurjeet Singh Memorial National Moot Court Competition in collaboration with the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), scheduled from May 24 to 26, 2024.

The competition is organized in memory of our beloved Founder- Vice Chancellor, Late Prof (Dr.) Gurjeet Singh who left for his heavenly abode on the 1st of April, 2017, out of indebtedness for his contribution and to symbolically immortalize his legacy in the annals of National Law University and Judicial Academy, Assam.

The Moot Court Committee of the institute is shouldered with the responsibility of molding the abilities of the students and boosting their knowledge in the legal spectrum. The committee actively takes part in organizing various such competitions with great zeal in order to provide the students with a platform to hone their skills, such as communication, drafting, researching and the like which are essentials for any aspiring candidate choosing to move forward in the field of law. The committee is looking forward to creating a thrilling and educated professional environment to provide the students with the required exposure to have hands-on experience at understanding and legally approaching the issues arising in the modern day society. 

We are thrilled to announce the 5th Gurjeet Singh Memorial National Moot Court Competition, organized in collaboration with the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). This year, the moot problem, authored by Mr. Tathagat Sharma, Central Government Counsel at the Supreme Court of India, delves into the pressing issue of gender-based discrimination, offering participants a compelling legal challenge. The competition, open to all bona fide undergraduate law students from recognized institutions, aims to promote a deeper understanding of human rights and the principles underpinning them. Through this prestigious collaboration with the NHRC, we hope to inspire the next generation of legal professionals to engage critically with human rights issues and champion equality in all its forms.
