ABOUT VIRTUOSITY LEGAL
Virtuosity Legal is a peer-reviewed legal academic blog independently run by students at the Faculty of Law, Aligarh Muslim University.

DETAILS ABOUT THE CALL FOR BLOGS
Class action litigation remains underdeveloped in India despite its theoretical promise. From the Bhopal Gas Tragedy to airline disruption claims, collective redress mechanisms have consistently fallen short in practice. Virtuosity Legal invites critical engagement on this theme for its upcoming publication cycle.
