INTRODUCTION
The profession of Law is a widely reputed profession and I am grateful to my Parents who are
helping me to pursue Law as my career. The term Law refers to the set of rules and regulations
adopted by a country which are meant to be binding upon each and every person present in that
country.
During my internship, I worked and learned under Mr. Arvind Kumar Shukla and I got a chance to
attend and study the civil, criminal matters being handled by them.
Civil matters include all the matters related to property, money etc. A civil code is a systematic
collection of laws designed to comprehensively deal with the core areas of private law such as for
dealing with business negligence.
Criminal matters include all the matters related to life and threat and are punishable under the
Indian Penal Code. Criminal Law is the body of Law that relates to crime. It regulates social
conduct and prescribes of what is threatening, harmful or otherwise endangering to the property,
health, safety and moral welfare of the people. It includes the punishment of people who violate
these laws. Criminal law differs from civil law, which has more emphasis on dispute resolution
and victim compensation than on punishment.
So, I started my internship in July in the physical manner at Supreme Court, New Delhi. Mr.
Arvind Kumar Shukla assigned me to do some research work to revise and recollect all the
essential and basic sections from Indian Penal Code, 1860, Constitution of India, 1951, Code Of
Civil procedure, 1908, Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, which were part of my curriculum and
syllabus for the last years and also asked me to collect the information regarding the essentials
sections of family law which would also help me understand more thoroughly about the cases and
would provide a basic structure upon which I could work on.
Mr. Arvind Kumar Shukla also provided me with some case files and asked me to read them and
grasp whatever I could from those files with my knowledge of laws that I have studied till now.
This helped me greatly, as I had a better understanding of laws that were applied in the cases and
also helped me to a great extent in interpreting the facts and contents upon which the cases were
based on.
I gained a lot of physical as well as virtual court experience in one month term of my as internship
as to how to tackle all type of clients, how the courts system in our country works, how to draft
some basic documents such as bail application, Relinquishment deeds, Affidavits and many more.
I also assisted them in formulation of arguments and, also drafted convenience volumes for the
assistance of the courts as well as virtual courts pertaining to urgent matters as well as regular
matters.
I attended virtual courts proceedings in the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, Hon'ble High Court
of Delhi, various District courts including physical appearance before the Delhi District Courts
and assisted counsels in the proceedings which was a great help in understanding the art of
litigation

the competent authority, where a court martial for the same has not been conducted. Though Rule
14 of the Army Rules provides for a situation where a trial by Court Martial becomes inexpedient
or impracticable and yet, there exists adequate material which cannot be ignored, then the
competent authority would be within its rights to arrive at the decision for administratively
terminating the service of the delinquent whose retention is undesirable. Here, the ground for
discharge from service was appellant's alleged involvement in a riot, which he has clearly denied.

therefore there was nothing much for me to do. A general discussion regarding internship
experience and the advocates and my seniors gave me best wishes for my future and even said to
remain in contact for future doubts.
Learning Outcome
Internship is all about practical knowledge, experience and learning. I got all these experiences
throughout my internship. Being my first internship experience, it was an astounding one for me.
I learned about various terminologies, which were all synonyms for me before coming here.
I learned various practical aspects of law. I also learned how to apply law which we study
theoretically in a practical situation. I learned how to distinguish that which type of case is a
specialty of a judge.
Major challenges faced and resolved
Well, the biggest challenge was the internship itself because knowing that one will have to go
there every day for a month because you just cannot miss it. It gave me a hint of how hard life can
be and without hard work there can be achieved nothing.
Because being there as an intern at a new place is different and exhausting. Understanding and
distinguishing between terminologies pertaining same meaning was a challenge to me. I really had
no idea of how I am going to keep pace with this in long 10AM to 8 PM routine.But lateron I
realized that I am learning many things and developing the skills. And I think that I am ready to
experience the same for longer duration now.
I was facing problem in reading judgments and classifying its content into various heads in the
beginning but now it has become a bit easier. Socializing with co-interns was also a difficult task
as they were from a totally different place and following a totally different pattern of life. But later
on everything went easily and nicely.
Conclusion
I am really thankful to Quantum University for providing this opportunity in the second year itself.
I practiced, I learned, I faced problems but it was an amazing, astonishing experience for me. It
gave me a real view to look upon law. It also gave me some habits of learning legal news daily and
a sort of staying in court and office for 10AM to 8 PM was also a great experience. Now I’m much
excited about by next learning experience. I hope that I get more and more such opportunities in
later times.
