In the light of this realizaion, this Law school established a legal research center. This would maintain relaionship with Colleges, Universiies, Insituion of Law in India and abroad. The vision of the Research Centre would help the Law student to develop a research oriented mindset right from the beginning of their career and thus many students published aricles in Naional and Internaional Journals.

Students Report…… Annual Day 2013-14 Respected Chairman Charutar Ratna Dr. C L Patel Sir and our esteemed chief guest Honorable Justice Dr. KJ Thakar sir & Nandani Madam, Principal S M Patel Sir, as well as all the luminaries of Charutar Vidya Mandal, Principals, Judges, teaching and non teaching staff, parents and never the less my dear students. As we all agree that collage means student and their activities, it is impossible to imagine a collage without students and their activities. In RNPIL&J we are having total 63 students Both in I & II Year in our 3 branches BALLB, B Com LLB, BBA LLB. The college means full of activities. Broadly speaking these activities can be divided into two categories academic and non-academic activities. It is the basic requirement for the good advocate to have good knowledge of law along with worldly knowledge. Hence we RNPI school of law and justice give equal importance on academic and non academic activities at the same time. Based on my above statement I have divided my report in three limbs. First being academic results and the Second being academic activities and third being non academic activities. Coming to the first part our students have secured dynamic results in University examinations. Over all result of our students are BA LLB 95.28 %, B Com LLB 100 %, BBA LLB 100% Now going in detail year wise In Ist Year Ist Sem our students have secured 85.7% in BA LLB 100%, in B Com & 100% BABLLB. In II year IIIrd Sem our students have secured 100 % in BA LLB 100%, in B Com LLB 100%, in BALLB 100%. Out of which more than 50 % of our students have passed with distinction. More than 35% with 1st Class. It is worth to mention that 80 % students have scored 10/10 grade points in one or more subjects. Coming to the second Part To begin with academic activities other than studies the very first thing that strikes my mind is about moot court activities. In the present era of legal education moot court plays a very important role in developing the future legal fraternity towards their ultimate goal where in the students are put to the test of analyzing thefacts under a given situation and to interpret the same with other laws and it gives the challenges similar to the advocates as and when the live case comes before them. Under my guidance collage has conducted 2 intra moot courts competitions, 9 national and international level moot competitions at various parts of India such as New Delhi, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharasthra, Rajasthan and Gujarat. Out of which 3 International level moot court competitions and 5 national level competitions. The details about the same are ………. 1. Symbiosis law collage on IPR. (Maharasthra) 2. NALSAR National Law University Hydrabad, Andhra Pradesh 3. University Law College Bangalore. Karnataka 4. Raja Lokhandi law collage Belgaum Karnataka 5. Jodh pur National Law School Jodhpur Rajasthan 6. Oxford University Moot Court Competition New delhi 7. KK Luthra International moot competition held at (New Delhi) 8. Amity International moot competition held at (New Delhi) 9. Gujart National Law School Gandhinagar Gujarat

It is worth to mention here that the said KK Luthra International Moot competition was open to entire world. And various teams from USA, UK, Singapore, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka and others participated in it, further only top 60 teams from entire world were selected for the competition and we were one among them occupying 35th position despite of being the students of 1st & II year. Under my guidance Our IInd students have visited to Anand district court as a part of Practicals, weekly once whole day to have the first hand information about the court activity. Ist Year students have visited the Anand District court to know the working of District court for one day. Our students have visited the Juvenile board to know the proceedings therein. Our students have participated in Legal Aid Camp at Rampur Village and discussed about the problems of the villagers. Our students were encouraged to visit various legal organization as Internship to equip themselves with the procedural aspect at the end of Even semester for 15 days and 1 month after Odd semester.

Under my guidance our students Participated at mock parliament at Pune and Ahmadabad. Wherein, the students have carried extensive research work about the democracy. One of our student Bhoomika Desai was selected as Student Leader and shared the dias with the dignitaries at Pune. Our students stood in II & III position at Nirma University.
