About NMIMS, School of Law
Established in 2018, SVKM’s NMIMS, School of Law, Navi Mumbai, offers two courses, BA-LL.B (Hons.) and BBA-LL.B (Hons.), catering to the growing needs of the legal field.
About the Conference
Law as a subject demands constant upgradation and revaluation to adapt to the needs of society today and not be forced to mould society to what the law was when it was made. Despite Constitutional mechanisms to cater to this need, the true spirit of this revaluation lies in the analysis and in-depth understanding by the legal fraternity. The Publication and Seminar Committee of SOL, NMIMS, Navi Mumbai wishes to hold a Conference on a niche, relatively unexplored law topics with the same spirit.
