Jagran Lakecity University (JLU) takes pride in being at the forefront of practice based learning. All faculties at JLU are dedicated to the VISION AND FOUR PILLARS. One of the four pillars of JLU is ‘Global Network Connect’, Faculty of LAW has shown another exemplary display of our belief in this pillar. 

o report another remarkable feat, Litigium, the debating society of Faculty of Law, in collaboration with An-Najah University, Palestine, organized Credence ’21: Virtual International Parliamentary Debate (British style) competition from 28th to 30thMay. 

 

The tournament witnessed an overwhelming response. A total of 88 teams and 70 independent adjudicators participated from various renowned institutions of India, Japan, Philippines, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh.

Credence was certainly one of the biggest tournaments ever hosted by any Indian institution. Three days of sensational debating and argumentation coupled with efficient coordination by the organizing committee (the Student Governing Body of Litigium) made it a world-class debating tournament. The participants appreciated the organizing team for their time and team management.

It is worth mentioning that Litigium had already organized its Asian Style International Parliamentary Debate competition (La Liberta ’20) in November last year which also received raving admiration. 

Two grand-level international debating tournaments within a span of 6 months were organized by JLU, and Litigium has become one of the very few debating societies in the Asian circuit to do so.

The evolution of Litigium as a debating society has been tremendous. Being a young DebSoc, we have hosted two huge events in the span of six months which is a significant achievement for us as a team. Through Litigium, we stay firm on our commitment of promoting world-class debating and fostering harmony and brotherhood across communities. – Dr. Ankit Singh, Faculty of Law
