NITI MANTHAN CAMPUS CONVENORSHIP PROGRAMME [NM-CCP]

Niti Manthan is rolling out the Campus Convenorship Programme [NM-CCP]. It aims to integrate all the law schools spread throughout the country and bring them under one roof to percolate the Niti Manthan programs including research opportunities, internships, publication opportunities and interviews. Apart from being the literal campus ambassadors, the campus conveners will also be responsible for conducting a few events in their individual colleges in collaboration with Niti Manthan. The conveners can also be a part of the mooting, debating culture and constructive discussions that will take place in the organization. It’s a unique opportunity for students who are proactive and are interested in being the face of their law school.

Niti Manthan is an initiative to motivate and inspire young students on various socio-legal themes and to guide them to traverse the righteous path throughout the endeavour of their personal and professional lives. Niti Manthan currently functions in the areas of legal blogs, internships, e-classes, Research centres, certificate courses and lecture series.
