Moot Court Association
Moot Court Association, or the MCA, is a student-run body which fosters and promotes the mooting culture in the University. It bears the responsibility of organizing moot court competitions and internal selections within the university. Instituted in 2002, the MCA is a recognized Cell of the University, with Faculty in-charge Dr. Sanjay Kumar Yadav.
The internal selections conducted by the Cell determine the pool of students who are then permitted to represent the University at moot court and client counselling competitions held in India and abroad. The MCA also orients various moot court competitions and client counseling competitions organized by various universities. These orientations finally determine the group of students who represent NLIU at the respective competitions. The cell comprises of two elected members from each of the existing batches.
The cell has been successfully organizing the NLIU-Juris Corp Corporate Law Moot Court Competition and the Justice R. K. Tankha Memorial National Moot Court Competition for the past several years. Also, this cell has organized several editions of the Stetson International Environmental Law Moot Court Competition, North India Rounds.
