On the face of it, this review shall typically serve as an academic forum that law students, academic and legal fraternity can take recourse of but in delving deeper, this law review aspires to be a forum that houses an objective analytical survey and scrutiny of the various contemporary legal and political issues that is so central to the becoming of law aspirants. Hence, as editors, it is our hope to build a forum that shows reciprocity where by this forum would be functional in providing effective learning and research tools to fellow aspirants but in turn would also be enriched with the legal opinions and perceptions of as well as highly esteemed legal personnel through their valued submissions.
The Review publishes articles by professors, judges and practitioners. The Editorial Board of the Review has decided to abstain from ascertaining specific themes to each issue in order to allow flexibility of content. A scrutinized editorial process is employed while editing each submission, irrespective of the author. An open column would be provided for our readers to raise contemporary issues that, in their opinion, warrant debate and deliberation.
The Symbiosis Law School, Nagpur Multidisciplinary Law Review wishes to promote and reflect the ideals and pillars of thought that accompanies the Symbiosis International (Deemed University). It is yet another attempt to pay tribute to our motto “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam—the world is one family” as it aspires to bind as many law aspirants and legal minds in our common pursuit to objectively perceive the world in the perfect balance of scales.
