ABOUT THE COLLEGE

Legal education and legal profession have been held in high esteem throughout

the world since time memorial. Undisputedly legal education has a cardinal role to play

in the matter of ensuring legal justice to the citizens. Herein lays the pivotal role of law

colleges and law schools. The last few decades have witnessed the due importance being

given to legal education in India. An element of professionalism is writ large in the

contemporary legal education in India. Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur

University’s Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar College of Law, a premier legal institution of

Central India is a name familiar to the legal fraternity all over India and needs no

introduction. Yet as a matter of sheer delight a few words about the college will not be

unwarranted.

College of Law (Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar College of Law), formerly known as

University Law College, established in the year 1925 is the conducted college of the

University. The college has the glorious beginning as Sir Vivian Bose who went on to

become the Judge of Supreme Court of India was the first Principal of this college. The

college, over the years, has attracted talent from all over India. Even today when the

college is facing competition from private law colleges, it is attracting young and

talented students not only from the area within the jurisdiction of the University but

even beyond. Large number of students from the adjoining areas of Chhattisgarh and

Madhya Pradesh States and also from the far flung areas of Delhi and North Eastern

states has been taking admissions in the college. This is testimony of the reputation and

rock solid standing of the college in Central India.

The popularity, standing, credibility and reputation of the college has been built

over the years through the dedicated and selfless service of the successive Vice-

Chancellors of the University, Principals and teaching and non-teaching staff of the

college. The contribution of the students of the college in building the edifice of its

reputation is no less significant. The alumni of the college are awesome and star

studded one. It includes the stalwarts in almost all important walks of public life. The

spectrum is as broad as it could be. If on one hand it includes the most notable

NOSTALGIA

As a head of the University it is indeed a matter of pride for me to be

associated with the national annual academic competition which is being

organized with the same vigour and spirit with which it was instituted 16

years back by the law college of the University. I am proud of the law college, its Principal,

teachers and especially the students who have shown remarkable academic commitment year

after year. National Moot Court competition, which is the main component of “Justa Causa” ,

whereas on one hand has been witnessing the exhibition of the talent of the young and

budding lawyers, hailing from different parts of the country is on the other hand providing

alternative method of learning for the new students of the college. The utility of this event

from the perspective of academic enrichment of the students of our college and also students

from other colleges is beyond speculation. I wish the organizing team of the college yet

another grand success.

-- DR. SIDHHARTHAVINAYAKA P. KANE

VICE- CHANCELLOR, RTMNU

“Justa Causa”, which means for the just cause, is the brain child of my

predecessor, conceived and executed 16 years back. This annual event of

the college, comprising several competitions, is the much awaited academic

programme both for the students of the college and also students of law colleges from various

parts of India, sheer because of its quality and utility. We are proudly entering in to the 16th

year of this activity. From the academic session 2017-18 we have changed the format and

now the event is spread throughout the academic session, expanding its horizon. However,

the major component of Just Causa, the national level moot court competition, organized by

the Moot Court Association of the college continues to be the star attraction and I am happy

to be associated with this event once more as a chairman of the association. Although this is

the sixteenth episode of the programme the vigour, enthusiasm and excitement of the students

is unbound and I am sure it is only because of the zeal of the students the academic

extravaganza called “Justa Causa” is celebrated for the last several years with lot of fanfare.

The national moot court competition starting from 19th January till 21st January 2018

promises to be one more unforgettable event of the college. I wish my team of students

headed by Mr. Sahil Jain and guided by the coordinator Adv. Mrs. Kalyani Kapse good luck

for the event.

DR. SHRIKANT R. KOMAWAR

PRINCIPAL

It gives me immense pleasure to pen few words as a coordinator of the Moot

Court Association of RTMNU’s Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar College of Law,

Nagpur. MCA is conducting various activities for sharpening the advocacy

and communication skills of the students for their overall personality development. As we

enter the 16th episode of JUSTA CAUSA, we are receiving overwhelming response from all

the corners of India. Moot Court competition is widely recognized as one of the most

efficient way to learn law and legal practice and develop the hidden potential of the students.

I am grateful for the patronage extended by the Honorable Judges of the Bombay High Court,

Nagpur Bench and also the Practicing Lawyers for their alma mater, year after year, which

makes this mega law event a grand success. I am also grateful to the Principals of the college

for giving me the opportunity to organize the mega national Law event. My sincere thanks to

other faculty members of the college for their whole heartedly support. This year’s Justa

Causa comprises National Essay Competition, National Drafting Competition and National

Moot Court Competition.

ADV. MRS. KALYANI S. KAPSE

CO-ORDINATOR, MOOT COURT ASSOCIATION.

With the grace of GOD and blessings of my parents I was unanimously

chosen as the President of Moot Court Association of the college for the

2017-18. It is no less an honor as my college which is now 90 years old has

produced many legal stalwarts, statesmen and bureaucrats who have left behind an

undeletable mark on the national life. I realized the onus of Presidency of the MCA only after

being chosen. The toughest task for the MCA president of our college is the organization of

“Justa Causa”, which my predecessors have done so deftly. However, having learnt under the

past Presidents I am confident of my team’s ability to organize the 16th “Just Causa” in a way

which will fulfill the hopes and expectations of one and all and scale new heights of success.

I assure that the intellectual feast of the three days will prove to be unforgettable for all the

participants of the competitions, included in the mega academic activity “Just Causa”.

EVENTS OF JUSTA CAUSA

➢ NATIONAL MOOT COURT COMPETITION

To moot means to bring something to a discussion. In a figurative sense, Moot

Court means “Hypothetical case or hearing/ trial”. The aim of Moot Court activity is

to groom the budding lawyers. It trains the students of law to create links between

theory and practice. Moot court competition provides a platform to the law students to

show case their mooting talent. It also is a way for the students to learn from their peer

group. Taking into consideration this significance of moot court competition, we

include this competition in the Law Festival. The judges for the preliminary and semi-

final rounds of the competitions are eminent practicing lawyers.

➢ NATIONAL LEGAL DRAFTING COMPETITION

The legal drafting competition provides an opportunity to the students to

develop their drafting skill which is hallmark of a successful lawyer. In this

competition, a legal problem will be given to the participants along with the research

material. The participants will have to draft the case within the stipulated time. These

written submissions will then be judged by a panel of judges.

➢ THE LATE SHRI RATANLAL HIRASAV DONGAONKAR MEMORIAL

NATIONAL LEGAL ESSAY WRITING COMPETITION

Essay writing is aimed to test and enhance writing skills of the students. It also

serves as a tool to test their knowledge and imagination. It involves critical thinking

and research skills as well as the ability to develop and logically express and defend

his view point. The National Legal Essay Writing Competition is aimed to provide a

Nation-Wide platform to the law students to demonstrate their skills of research,

language and presentation of their ideas on a particular topic.
