Such a commitment to lifelong learning, he noted, not only enhances their academic understanding but also equips them to meet the practical challenges of future legal practice with confidence and competence.

Urging them to act as ambassadors of legal services, he called upon them to actively spread awareness about legal rights and entitlements, particularly among marginalised and underprivileged sections of society.

The short film titled 'The Unheard Silence', on the theme of the NALSA Standard Operating Procedure towards Eliminating Child Marriage 2025, won the first prize.
