Four Indian students have been selected for a six-week judicial clerkship programme in the Supreme Court of Hawaii in the US.
Girl students Aparajita Sheel, Ishnoor Saini and Swarnim Swasti, studying in the 4th year of BA LLB in Jindal Global Law School, and 3rd-year student Avni Choudhary have been selected for the Summer Clerkship Programme, a release issued by O P Jindal Global University (JGU) said.
"The Summer Clerkship Programme at the Supreme Court of Hawaii is a wonderful opportunity for the students for gaining a strong grounding in the US law including substantive and procedural law. This programme aims to promote global legal education," Professor C Raj Kumar, Vice Chancellor of JGU and Dean of Jindal Global Law School, said.
The release said that the clerkship will provide the students opportunity to witness US State Supreme Court proceedings.
It said the programme was conceived during the visit of Hawaii Supreme Court Judge Justice Michael Wilson here in March this year.
