First impression, first day formalities, infrastructure

The location of the office is disappointing but you don’t have to send your internship in office.

Interns are given field work which includes going to places and collecting information.

Main tasks

The work was mainly research oriented and consisted of researching topics and constructing reports.

There were also a couple of times we were made to interview people like experienced lawyers) in order to make a more detailed and comparative report.

Researching intensely on so many topics has definitely helped me improve my researching abilities. It also has helped me improve my writing abilities as well as my networking capabilities.

Work environment and people

All in all this is a very good internship that you can learn a lot from. The staff of the organisation is also very kind and agreeable which helps as well.

Best things

I was able to experience and learn a lot from this internship. One of the main thing was that while topics were given, we were allowed creative freedom which helped us to do the work better.

Bad things

Nothing as such.

Stipend

None

Biggest Lessons

The biggest lesson I got while doing this internship was never underestimate your skills. The law is same for all.

Accommodation

If you need accommodation you can get flats on rent in Patel Nagar or Moti Nagar. Since I have a cousin living in Delhi so there was no need for me to take accommodation.

Office Timings

10 am – 6 pm
