Former Chief Justice Shri Dipak Misra addressed the audience, “Law is a noble profession because we provide selfless service to the society. I would like to encourage the students participating in the Moot competition to selflessly serve the people of the country. Mooting delivers a holistic approach to learning the law, as the students argue imaginary cases for practice, focused solely on the application of Law to a common set of evidentiary assumptions.”

Justice Swatanter Kumar, Former NGT Chairman on the occasion said, “I would like to thank Sharda University for inviting me to the 4th edition of the Moot Court competition and promote experiential learning among students. This event has witnessed exponential growth as more and more teams participate in the competition each year. It is indeed a great platform to promote comprehensive examination of the factual matrix, and the application of the appropriate law to the facts. Lawyers are very important to the social fabric of the country, and students willing to choose the profession as a career should not follow just their head, but their conscience as well.”
Moot Court competition is aimed at developing advocacy skills in students in order to make them confident lawyers of the future by replicating the real-world environment of court rooms. The three day event consists of teams advocating both sides of a simulated issue with an aim to develop advocacy and research skills and help sharpen legal acumen, logical argumentation and critical thinking abilities among law students giving them a chance to get hands-on experience in the operation of legal doctrines in a practical setting.
