II JECRC NATIONAL VIRTUAL MOOT COURT COMPETITION BY SCHOOL OF LAW, JECRC UNIVERSITY

ABOUT THE ORGANIZER:

JECRC University, Jaipur, Rajasthan is one of the Premier Universities of North India, established under The JECRC University Act, 2012 of the Government of Rajasthan. JECRC University had started the School of Law in 2017 with the approval of the Bar Council of India. We at JECRC University aim to provide a platform for young students to understand the inter-dependence of today’s world and its myriad challenges and opportunities.

ABOUT COMPETITION

We believe that the objective of modern education should be to create world citizens with the right moral and ethical values, tolerance, discipline, commitment, compassion, and sensitivity. JECRC’s School of Law was the first law school in Rajasthan to start the drift towards a national level Virtual Moot Court Competition for the young law aspirants while defeating the constraints of the Pandemic. 

Our last edition was in the format of a Mono-Advocacy Moot wherein, the guests were Sitting Judge of Rajasthan HC, Additional Solicitor General and was adjudged by Advocates on Record, Advocates of RHC and Member, Bar Council of Rajasthan. Last year we witnessed the nationwide participation of more than 50 students coming from top Law Schools of India including NLUs and other Private Institutions. Cash Prizes worth Rs. 10,000 were awarded to the students in which Symbiosis Law School, Pune won the best team prize. 

Thus, with greater zeal and enthusiasm, we have come up with our 2nd National Virtual Moot Court Competition wherein, the proposition is related to the emerging IP Rights Laws and the participation cap is 40 teams.
