RGNUL 4th RGNUL Sports and Entertainment Law National Mediation Competition (April 8-10, 2022); Register by March 5, 2022

ABOUT THE COMPETITION

After three successful years of the flagship RGNUL Sports and Entertainment Law Mediation Competition (SEMC), CADR- RGNUL is all set to organise the 4th edition of the exciting competition from 8th-10th April 2022. The competition has the dynamic support of PACT, an organisation devoted to advancing the interests of students in the field of Alternative Dispute Resolution. In addition to that as Chief Knowledge Partners, we are happy to have on board Markanda Advocates, a firm specialising in arbitration practice.

The fourth edition which is slated to be held virtually (subject to change upon the prevailing circumstances) is going to be exciting and intellectually stimulating. With the increasing emphasis on mediation in India, this edition is intended to further the prospects of India becoming a hub for mediation practice. The participants can expect invigorating discussions and deliberations on the most vogue and trending aspects of the subject. Exciting prizes await the qualifiers of the grilling mediation sessions of SEMC 2022. The legacy thus continues and CADR promises that this time it will be bigger and better.
