BHU- The judge factory of India

Admission: BHU intakes students in their B.A.LL.B(Hons) program through an entrance exam known as (BLAT). Nearly 60 thousand students apply every year for just 60 seats. The syllabus comprises of: Quantitative technique. Logical reasoning Legal reasoning with legal maxims Current affairs General knowledge with static GK. English grammar. The exam is not very tough but the competition is pretty high.

I opted for this course because it empowers an individual to bring a change in the lives of the people. The faculty to student ratio is quite low as compared to other institutions hardly there are 80 students because of such a low number of seats, so enough interactions take place among the student and the teachers. Most of the faculty is highly qualified and are at the professor level. The works of the faculties have been published in many renowned colleges across the world. One of those notable professors is Prof. R.K.Murli sir whose work in labour law has been published many times in the ivy collages like, Harvard.

The campus does offer placement being in the 1st year of my law school I did an internship with an NGO though there was no stipend my work got published there are internships and subsequent years one also gets stipend while working in different chambers and in law firms.

Most of the students are more inclined towards judiciary and BHU intakes also known as the Judge Factory of India. The law school is quite new regarding the placement though the law school has been teaching law for more than 100 years the placement cell was established recently in 2014 and the cell is working quite hard to bring companies. The cell also provides quite a number of internships as I have witnessed in my 1 semester but I am not very much aware of the placement as only 2 batches have passed out only. So it needs some time to show some results.

The five year integrated program (B.A.LL.B) is a self financed program so its fee becomes 20 times more than the regular LL.B program still it is very much low than most the colleges in the country. The fee of the B.A.LL.B (Hons) program is 60000 per annum. Though there are quite a lot no. of scholarship available which one can render.

Thanks to this COVID-19 I haven't visited the campus yet, but from the past experience of the campus, it is very evident that the campus is full of greenery. The university has an immense collection of books and journals after getting into law school one gets access to the library personally the law school along with the acces to the central library and the cyber library. The university gives lots of amenities like medical facilities, shuttle runs, wifi, swimming pool etc. The university also has its teams in various disciplines which constantly participants in all India level tournaments. The law school also has various social group and legal aid society providing legal to the underprivileged communities.
