First General Body Meeting of the Winter Semester

A recent poll conducted by the MagCom found that 82.17% of the NUJS students have attended a GB meeting at one point or another. And why shouldn’t they? GB Meetings offer a chance to know, to gripe and to shout. Mix in a liberal dose of legal jargon and some everyday college controversies and you have close to two hours’ worth of entertainment that would give the latest Yash Raj a run for its money.

The first general body meeting of the Winter Semester was a surprisingly sedate one, with a modest turn out. Two amendments to the NUJS Constitution were made, one that confirmed the division between the Magazine Committee and the Juridical Review and the other relating to a Society’s power to show-cause GB members. Other maters of grave importance included the impact of the recession on the impending fests Invicta and Outlawed, and proposed changes in the Examination Rules and the Academic Calendar. Of particular note was the fact that all of the topics on the Agenda were covered, a feat rarely achieved.
