The National Law School of India University (NLSIU) on Saturday conferred 43 gold medals on graduating students from various programmes during its 31st convocation. The medal winners credited the NLSIU for instilling confidence in them and providing a good community for support.
Jwalika Balaji and Vidisha Singh, both from the five-year integrated BA LLB (Honours) programme, were awarded six gold medals each. “I came here as I liked the degree which was a mix of arts and law and as I continued, I fell in love with law, especially family law and human rights. They were the most fulfilling courses I did in the law school combined with the internships in those areas of law,” said Ms. Balaji who hails from Chennai. Her parents work at IIT Madras. She is leaving for Oxford University in England in September for her master’s degree.
