It is based on the notion of moot court with a little twist. It is aimed to provide an experience of Moot Court to prospective law students without resorting to core legal issues/arguments and assist them in developing their critical and analytical reasoning skills.The participants will be analysing the factual matrix of the situation and arguing on the same.

Objectives

  • To enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills that are required in law school.
  • To encourage students to express their thoughts on an online medium and thereby improve their communication skills.
  • To expose High School students to the nuances of court system in India.
  • To provide a real-life experience cum training in presenting ground-breaking arguments (oral and written).

Moot Problem

Moot Problem is a hypothetical situation which makes up for a case in the court. The Moot Problem for this competition is based on a human rights issue. It is important that the participants stick to the facts provided in the moot problem while forming arguments without dealing in legal provisions.
