About the Event
LAWGORITHM returns with a renewed vision to offer law students an immersive and practice-oriented legal experience. The fest brings together a series of intellectually engaging competitions designed to strengthen essential lawyering skills through simulation, analysis, and argumentation. With teams from colleges across India participating, LAWGORITHM has grown into a national platform for budding legal minds to showcase their talent and expertise.
This year, the fest proudly introduces the first-ever PRABAL National Moot Court Competition, providing students with an opportunity to refine legal research, drafting, and oral advocacy through a contemporary moot problem rooted in criminal and constitutional law. Alongside the moot, the Client Counselling Competition focuses on enhancing professional communication, ethical reasoning, and client-handling abilities through realistic interview simulations.
Adding to this, ANVESHAN, the Crime Scene Investigation Competition, immerses participants in a staged forensic environment where they examine evidence, document observations, and reconstruct events using investigative reasoning. Together, these competitions encourage analytical thinking, practical learning, and a deeper understanding of how law interacts with human behaviour, rights, and justice
