<p>The future law restorers of the country were in the City to explore the scope of arbitration in the field of law at the ‘International Arbitration Moot Court Competition’ held at National Law School of India University (NLSIU). <br /><br /></p>.<p>Students emphasised on the scope of arbitration which is an alternate form of dispute resolution in the field of law and said that it is an upcoming field. <br /><br /> Chaired by many eminent lawyers of the country like Harpreet Singh Nehal, Pramod Nair and Amrita Biswas among others, the event saw students from national and international law colleges coming down to the City to participate.<br /><br />Alexandre Meyneil, a participant from the Washington College of Law, said that it was the first time that any American law college was participating in a moot competition in India. “Such moots are helpful as we get to interact with students from various countries and get to know different kinds of laws and ways to resolve a dispute. They also brush us up for future when we start practising,” he added.<br /><br />When asked about visiting the City, he said, “It is my first trip to India and I love Bangalore. The food is amazing. People eat a lot of greens. Although the food is spicy, I am getting used to it. I also want to visit some historical places in the City after I am through with the competition.”<br /><br /> Jahnavi Sindhu, a second year student at NLSIU, informed that moot competitions are essential for law students as they have various advantages. “They help us improve our communication skills and are also helpful for those who want to litigate. We get a lot of guidance on our career from the experts Since this is the only arbitration moot in the country, it is the best way to get a hands-on experience,” she explained. <br /><br />The competition was held for a span of three days. While the first two sessions were held in the college campus, the final leg of the competition was held at a city hotel. <br /><br />Archana Kedia and Sandeep Tiwari, students of BACL Nagpur, felt that moot competitions help them hone up on their court etiquettes which is a key factor while litigating. “Apart from the knowledge you gain, they are also a test of how well you convince the panel and stick to your point. More than anything, they are a test of your patience and how well you prepare for a case. They are a great help for students who will start their career soon,” summed up Sandeep. <br /><br />The team from Indian Law Society Pune wanted to make the most of this opportunity. “We are here to have fun and give our best shot. It is one of the best competitions in the country and we will go all out. Along with the moot, we also plan to go around the City and shop at famous places in Bangalore like Commercial Street,” says Kaustubh Mone.</p>
